The distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack is detrimental to the industrial Internet of things (IIoT) as it triggers severe resource starvation on networked objects. Recent dynamics demonstrate that it is a highly profitable business…

While the Internet of things (IoT) promises to improve areas such as energy efficiency, health care, and transportation, it is highly vulnerable to cyberattacks. In particular, DDoS attacks work by overflowing the bandwidth of a server. But…

Botnets are prevailing mechanisms for the facilitation of the distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks on computer networks or applications. Currently, Botnet-based DDoS attacks on the application layer are latest and most problematic…

Named Data Networking (NDN) is a prominent realization of the vision of Information-Centric Networking. The NDN architecture adopts name-based routing and location-independent data retrieval. Among other important features, NDN integrates…

As the prevalence of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices becomes more and more dominant, so too do the associated management and security challenges. One such challenge is the exploitation of vulnerable devices for recruitment into botnets,…

DDoS attacks involve overwhelming a target system with a large number of requests or traffic from multiple sources, disrupting the normal traffic of a targeted server, service, or network. Distinguishing between legitimate traffic and…

Attacks on Internet routing are typically viewed through the lens of availability and confidentiality, assuming an adversary that either discards traffic or performs eavesdropping. Yet, a strategic adversary can use routing attacks to…

The rapid increase of diverse Internet of things (IoT) services and devices has raised numerous challenges in terms of connectivity, computation, and security, which networks must face in order to provide satisfactory support. This has led…

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) is a common type of Cybercrime. It can strongly damage a company reputation and increase its costs. Attackers improve continuously their strategies. They doubled the amount of unleashed communication…

In recent years, computer networks have become more and more advanced in terms of size, applications, complexity and level of heterogeneity. Moreover, availability and performance are important issues for end users. New types of…

Booter services continue to provide popular DDoS-as-a-service platforms and enable anyone irrespective of their technical ability, to execute DDoS attacks with devastating impact. Since booters are a serious threat to Internet operations…

Pushback is a mechanism for defending against Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks. DDoS attacks are treated as a congestion-control problem, but because most such congestion is caused by malicious hosts not obeying traditional…

Online elections make a natural target for distributed denial of service attacks. Election agencies wary of disruptions to voting may procure DDoS protection services from a cloud provider. However, current DDoS detection and mitigation…

The future of the Internet is predicted to be on the cloud, resulting in more complex and more intensive computing, but possibly also a more insecure digital world. The presence of a large amount of resources organized densely is a key…

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks form a serious threat to the security of Internet services. However, despite over a decade of research, and the existence of several proposals to address this problem, there has been little…

This paper analyze security issues of Bloom filter based multicast forwarding mechanisms. Tree oriented approaches and destination oriented approaches are studied. We analyze the possible distributed denail of service (DDoS) against the…

The identification of the exact path that packets are routed in the network is quite a challenge. This paper presents a novel, efficient traceback strategy in combination with a defence system against distributed denial of service (DDoS)…

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) is one of the most prevalent attacks that an organizational network infrastructure comes across nowadays. We propose a deep learning based multi-vector DDoS detection system in a software-defined network…

Telephony Denial of Service (TDoS) attacks target telephony services, such as Voice over IP (VoIP), not allowing legitimate users to make calls. There are few defenses that attempt to mitigate TDoS attacks, most of them using IP filtering,…

The Tor network offers network anonymity to its users by routing their traffic through a sequence of relays. A group of nine directory authorities maintains information about all available relay nodes using a distributed directory protocol.…
