This paper concerns the consensus and formation of a network of mobile autonomous agents in adversarial settings where a group of malicious (compromised) agents are subject to deception attacks. In addition, the communication network is…

Internet of Things (IoT) networks consist of sensors, actuators, mobile and wearable devices that can connect to the Internet. With billions of such devices already in the market which have significant vulnerabilities, there is a dangerous…

We consider a cloud based multiserver system, that may be cloud based, consisting of a set of replica application servers behind a set of proxy (indirection) servers which interact directly with clients over the Internet. We address…

Existing distributed denial of service attack (DDoS) solutions cannot handle highly aggregated data rates; thus, they are unsuitable for Internet service provider (ISP) core networks. This article proposes a digital twin-enabled intelligent…

We unveil the existence of a vulnerability in Wi-Fi, which allows an adversary to remotely launch a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack that propagates both in time and space. This vulnerability stems from a coupling effect induced by hidden…

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are one of the most harmful threats in today's Internet, disrupting the availability of essential services. The challenge of DDoS detection is the combination of attack approaches coupled with…

This paper gives an analytical method to determine the economic and indirect implications of denial of service and distributed denial of service attacks. It is based on time preference dynamics applied to the monetary mass for the…

Denial of service attacks pose a threat in constant growth. This is mainly due to their tendency to gain in sophistication, ease of implementation, obfuscation and the recent improvements in occultation of fingerprints. On the other hand,…

DoS and DDoS attacks have been growing in size and number over the last decade and existing solutions to mitigate these attacks are in general inefficient. Compared to other types of malicious cyber attacks, DoS and DDoS attacks are…

A novel class of extreme link-flooding DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks is designed to cut off entire geographical areas such as cities and even countries from the Internet by simultaneously targeting a selected set of network…

This work proposes a novel approach to infer and characterize Internet-scale DNS amplification DDoS attacks by leveraging the darknet space. Complementary to the pioneer work on inferring Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) activities…

This paper addresses a resilient exponential distributed convex optimization problem for a heterogeneous linear multi-agent system under Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks over random digraphs. The random digraphs are caused by unreliable…

In this paper, we consider a class of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, which aims at overloading the communication channel. On top of the security issue, continuous or periodic transmission of information within feedback loop is necessary…

Pulse-wave Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks generate short, synchronized bursts of traffic that circumvent pattern-based detection and quickly exhaust traditional defense systems. This transient and spatially distributed…

We uncover a vulnerability that allows for an attacker to perform an email-based attack on selected victims, using only standard scripts and agents. What differentiates the attack we describe from other, already known forms of distributed…

In the current world, the Internet is being used almost everywhere. With the rise of IoT technology, which is one of the most used technologies, billions of IoT devices are interconnected over the Internet. However, DoS/DDoS attacks are the…

The 911 emergency service belongs to one of the 16 critical infrastructure sectors in the United States. Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks launched from a mobile phone botnet pose a significant threat to the availability of this…

Denial of Service (DoS) is a security threat which compromises the confidentiality of information stored in Local Area Networks (LANs) due to unauthorized access by spoofed IP addresses. SYN Flooding is a type of DoS which is harmful to…

For the traditional denial-of-service attack detection methods have complex algorithms and high computational overhead, which are difficult to meet the demand of online detection; and the experimental environment is mostly a simulation…

Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a network paradigm shift that facilitates comprehensive network programmability to cope with emerging new technologies such as cloud computing and big data. SDN facilitates simplified and centralized…
