The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is the multimedia communication protocol of the future. Used for Voice-over-IP (VoIP), Internet Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and Internet Protocol Television (IPTV), its concepts are based on mature and open standards and its use is increasing rapidly within recent years. However, with its acceptance as a mainstream communication platform, security concerns b...

This paper investigate the behavior of DoS attacks while they are affecting the stability of computer systems as well as exploit a distributed framework which will monitor, detect, and prevent DoS attacks. This framework includes several distributed monitors implemented at the critical components and a management center which is used to detect and prevent DoS attacks.

Network Denial of Service (DoS) attacks are increasing in frequency, severity and sophistication, making it desirable to measure the resilience of systems to DoS attacks. In this paper, we propose a simulation-based methodology and apply it to attacks on object location services such as DNS. Our results allow us to contrast the DoS resilience of three distinct architectures for object location.

Ksionzek et al (Reports, 28 October 2016, p. 456) provide important data describing the distribution of dissolved organic sulfur (DOS) in the Atlantic Ocean. Here, we show that mixing between water masses is sufficient to explain the observed distribution of DOS, concluding that the turnover time of refractory DOS that Ksionzek et al present cannot be deduced from their data.

Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, a damaging assault on computer networking infrastructure, have been extensively examined by the digital computing community. However, no work has been done to examine the ability of Extended Analog Computers (EAC) to detect DoS attacks. In this paper, we discuss how EACs could be used in DoS detection.

The SIP is becoming the core of multimedia communication network through the IP, based on which the 3G network has been operated in our country. The easy implementation, high destruction and hard tracking against attacking source which are the characters of DoS attack cause the great security threat to SIP. Focusing on the research on defense mechanisms of DoS attacks in SIP protocol, this pape...

We propose a novel service architecture to provide DoS resistant communication services in the Internet. The architecture consists of a large scale federated overlay network with DoS protected tunnels established between overlay nodes. Individual overlay nodes are deployed and maintained by the domains hosting them. The overlay network as a whole is shared by all participating domains. This arc...
