[PDF][PDF] On a new class of pulsing denial-of-service attacks and the defense.

X Luo, RKC Chang - NDSS, 2005 - ndss-symposium.org
In this paper we analyze a new class of pulsing denialof-service (PDoS) attacks that could
seriously degrade the throughput of TCP flows. During a PDoS attack, periodic pulses of …

Low rate TCP denial-of-service attack detection at edge routers

A Shevtekar, K Anantharam… - IEEE Communications …, 2005 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Low rate TCP denial-of-service attacks are a new type of DoS attacks that are carefully
orchestrated to exploit the fixed minimum TCP RTO property and thereby deny services to …

Use of spectral analysis in defense against DoS attacks

CM Cheng, HT Kung, KS Tan - … Conference, 2002. GLOBECOM' …, 2002 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We propose using spectral analysis to identify normal TCP traffic so that it will not be
dropped or rate-limited in defense against denial of service (DoS) attacks. The approach can …

Distributed mechanism in detecting and defending against the low-rate TCP attack

H Sun, JCS Lui, DKY Yau - Computer Networks, 2006 - Elsevier
In this paper, we consider a distributed mechanism to detect and to defend against the low-
rate TCP attack. The low-rate TCP attack is a recently discovered attack. In essence, it is a …

Power spectrum entropy based detection and mitigation of low-rate DoS attacks

Z Chen, CK Yeo, BS Lee, CT Lau - Computer Networks, 2018 - Elsevier
Abstract Low-Rate DoS (LDoS) attacks send periodical packet bursts to the bottleneck
routers which can throttle the bandwidth of TCP flows. They are difficult to detect while …

Malicious packet dropping: How it might impact the TCP performance and how we can detect it

X Zhang, SF Wu, Z Fu, TL Wu - Proceedings 2000 International …, 2000 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Among various types of denial of service attacks," dropping attack" is probably the most
difficult one to handle. This paper explores the negative impacts of packet dropping attacks …

Defending against low-rate TCP attacks: Dynamic detection and protection

H Sun, JCS Lui, DKY Yau - Proceedings of the 12th IEEE …, 2004 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We consider a distributed approach to detect and to defend against the low-rate TCP attack
(A. Kuzmanovic et al., August 2003). The low-rate TCP attack is essentially a periodic short …

Countering denial-of-service attacks using congestion triggered packet sampling and filtering

Y Huang, JM Pullen - Proceedings Tenth International …, 2001 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Denial-of-service (DoS) attacks have received a great amount of attention in research
communities and general public alike, due to recent, high-profile attacks against major …

On the effect of router buffer sizes on low-rate denial of service attacks

S Sarat, A Terzis - Proceedings. 14th International Conference …, 2005 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Router queues buffer packets during congestion epochs. A recent result by Appenzeller et
al. showed that the size of FIFO queues can be reduced considerably without sacrificing …

RRED: robust RED algorithm to counter low-rate denial-of-service attacks

C Zhang, J Yin, Z Cai, W Chen - IEEE Communications Letters, 2010 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
The existing Random Early Detection (RED) algorithm and its variants are found vulnerable
to emerging attacks, especially the Low-rate Denial-of-Service (LDoS) attacks. In this letter …
