The potential for being the target of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks is one of the most severe
security threats on the Internet. Attackers have been modifying their attack format over the …

Denial of service (DoS) attacks evolved and consolidated as severe security threats to
network servers, not only for internet service providers but also for governments. Earlier DoS …

This paper proposes a novel method to detect anomalies in network traffic, based on a
nonrestricted α-stable first-order model and statistical hypothesis testing. To this end, we …

Slow HTTP Denial of Service (DoS) is an application layer DoS attack in which large number
of incomplete HTTP requests are sent. If number of such open connections in the server …

In the last years, Denial of Service (DoS) attacks have been widely spreaded becoming a
more than ever relevant threat to network security. DoS attacks evolved from flood to low …

Cloud computing is a fast-growing and promising technology segment that aims to reduce

Distributed Denial of Service attacks are a growing threat to organizations and, as defense
mechanisms are becoming more advanced, hackers are aiming at the application layer. For …

In recent years, variants of denial of service (DoS) attacks that use low-rate traffic have been
proposed, including the Shrew attack, reduction of quality attacks, and low-rate DoS attacks …

In order to achieve requirements such as fast search of flow entries and mask matching,
OpenFlow hardware switches usually use TCAM to store flow entries. Limited by the …
