Preventing Distributed Denial-of-Service Attacks on the IMS Emergency Services Support through Adaptive Firewall Pinholing
Emergency services are vital services that Next Generation Networks (NGNs)
have to provide. As the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is in the heart of NGNs,
3GPP has carried the burden of specifying a standardized IMS-based emergency
services framework. Unfortunately, like any other IP-based standards, the
IMS-based emergency service framework is prone to Distributed Denial of Service
(DDoS) attacks. We propose in this work, a simple but efficient solution that
can prevent certain types of such attacks by creating firewall pinholes that
regular clients will surely be able to pass in contrast to the attackers
clients. Our solution was implemented, tested in an appropriate testbed, and
its efficiency was proven.Comment: 17 Pages, IJNGN Journa

A survey of intrusion detection techniques in Cloud
Cloud computing provides scalable, virtualized on-demand services to the end users with greater flexibility and lesser infrastructural investment. These services are provided over the Internet using known networking protocols, standards and formats under the supervision of different managements. Existing bugs and vulnerabilities in underlying technologies and legacy protocols tend to open doors for intrusion. This paper, surveys different intrusions affecting availability, confidentiality and integrity of Cloud resources and services. It examines proposals incorporating Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) in Cloud and discusses various types and techniques of IDS and Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), and recommends IDS/IPS positioning in Cloud architecture to achieve desired security in the next generation networks
Preventing DDoS using Bloom Filter: A Survey
Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) is a menace for service provider and
prominent issue in network security. Defeating or defending the DDoS is a prime
challenge. DDoS make a service unavailable for a certain time. This phenomenon
harms the service providers, and hence, loss of business revenue. Therefore,
DDoS is a grand challenge to defeat. There are numerous mechanism to defend
DDoS, however, this paper surveys the deployment of Bloom Filter in defending a
DDoS attack. The Bloom Filter is a probabilistic data structure for membership
query that returns either true or false. Bloom Filter uses tiny memory to store
information of large data. Therefore, packet information is stored in Bloom
Filter to defend and defeat DDoS. This paper presents a survey on DDoS
defending technique using Bloom Filter.Comment: 9 pages, 1 figure. This article is accepted for publication in EAI
