An Efficient Analytical Solution to Thwart DDoS Attacks in Public Domain
In this paper, an analytical model for DDoS attacks detection is proposed, in
which propagation of abrupt traffic changes inside public domain is monitored
to detect a wide range of DDoS attacks. Although, various statistical measures
can be used to construct profile of the traffic normally seen in the network to
identify anomalies whenever traffic goes out of profile, we have selected
volume and flow measure. Consideration of varying tolerance factors make
proposed detection system scalable to the varying network conditions and attack
loads in real time. NS-2 network simulator on Linux platform is used as
simulation testbed. Simulation results show that our proposed solution gives a
drastic improvement in terms of detection rate and false positive rate.
However, the mammoth volume generated by DDoS attacks pose the biggest
challenge in terms of memory and computational overheads as far as monitoring
and analysis of traffic at single point connecting victim is concerned. To
address this problem, a distributed cooperative technique is proposed that
distributes memory and computational overheads to all edge routers for
detecting a wide range of DDoS attacks at early stage.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1203.240
Security and risk analysis in the cloud with software defined networking architecture
Cloud computing has emerged as the actual trend in business information technology service models, since it provides processing that is both cost-effective and scalable. Enterprise networks are adopting software-defined networking (SDN) for network management flexibility and lower operating costs. Information technology (IT) services for enterprises tend to use both technologies. Yet, the effects of cloud computing and software defined networking on business network security are unclear. This study addresses this crucial issue. In a business network that uses both technologies, we start by looking at security, namely distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack defensive methods. SDN technology may help organizations protect against DDoS assaults provided the defensive architecture is structured appropriately. To mitigate DDoS attacks, we offer a highly configurable network monitoring and flexible control framework. We present a dataset shift-resistant graphic model-based attack detection system for the new architecture. The simulation findings demonstrate that our architecture can efficiently meet the security concerns of the new network paradigm and that our attack detection system can report numerous threats using real-world network data
Efficient classification using parallel and scalable compressed model and Its application on intrusion detection
In order to achieve high efficiency of classification in intrusion detection,
a compressed model is proposed in this paper which combines horizontal
compression with vertical compression. OneR is utilized as horizontal
com-pression for attribute reduction, and affinity propagation is employed as
vertical compression to select small representative exemplars from large
training data. As to be able to computationally compress the larger volume of
training data with scalability, MapReduce based parallelization approach is
then implemented and evaluated for each step of the model compression process
abovementioned, on which common but efficient classification methods can be
directly used. Experimental application study on two publicly available
datasets of intrusion detection, KDD99 and CMDC2012, demonstrates that the
classification using the compressed model proposed can effectively speed up the
detection procedure at up to 184 times, most importantly at the cost of a
minimal accuracy difference with less than 1% on average
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
