This paper deals with study of a new framework for the traceback of distributed DoS(Denial of Service) attacks in the Internet, in which many sources flood "spoofed" IP packets towards a single victim. In our scheme, the destination host traces those anonymous packets' losses, and infers the logical end-to-end paths back towards the sources. This method is based on the fact that there is a strong correlation between packet losses when those packets traverse along a same route, and the simulation results show high probabilities of detecting the topology under a certain condition. Compared with previous approaches, our scheme has a number of distinct features: It can be performed in realtime or non-realtime, without any supports of routers or ISPs. Our results may be applied to the inference of physical topology and to support previous approaches.pproaches.

Wireless LAN (WLAN) is type of wireless service that has higher data transmission than current cellular networks. The usage is continually increasing. There are a lot of vulnerabilities in wireless network, due to the properties of the wireless environment, regardless of its popularity. IEEE announced the 802.11i security standard to solve these problems. The vulnerable point of messages used in the process of key distribution for 802.11i makes the target node attacked lose memory through continuous messages and blocks the legitimate WLAN service. In this paper, we proposed new schemes to solve this problem and compared our proposals with the current process. The proposed protocol eliminates the memory exhaustion problem on the client side by using methods for reduction of memory usage.

Recently, Voice over Internet protocol(VoIP) in IP-based wired and wireless voice, as well as by providing multimedia information transfer. Wired and wireless VoIP is easy on illegal eavesdropping of phone calls and VoIP call control signals on the network. In addition, service misuse attacks, denial of service attacks can be targeted as compared to traditional landline phones, there are several security vulnerabilities. In this paper, VoIP equipment in order to obtain information on the IP Phone is scanning. And check the password of IP Phone, and log in successful from the administrator's page. Then after reaching the page VoIP IP Phone Administrator Settings screen, phone number, port number, certification number, is changed. In addition, IP Phones that are registered in the administrator page of the call records check and personal information is the study of hacking.

One of the OSI 7 Layer DDoS Attack, HTTP POST DDoS can deny legitimate service by web server resource depletion. This Attack can be executed with less network traffic and legitimate TCP connections. Therefore, It is difficult to distinguish DDoS traffic from legitimate users. In this paper, I propose an anomaly HTTP POST traffic detection algorithm and http each page Content-Length field size limit with defense method for HTTP POST DDoS attack. Proposed method showed the result of detection and countermeasure without false negative and positive to use the r-u-dead-yet of HTTP POST DDoS attack tool and the self-developed attack tool.

Recently, the cloud technology has made dynamical network changes by enabling the construction of a logical network without building a physical network. Despite recent research on the cloud, it is necessary to study security functions for the identification of fake virtual network functions and the encryption of communication between entities. Because the VNFs are open to subscribers and able to implement service directly, which can make them an attack target. In this paper, we propose a virtual public key infrastructure mechanism that detects a fake VNFs and guarantees data security through mutual authentication between VNFs. To evaluate the virtual PKI, we built a management and orchestration environment to test the performance of authentication and key generation for data security. And we test the detection of a distributed denial of service by using several AI algorithms to enhance the security in NFV.

In order to cope with DoS (Denial of Service) attacks disturbing delivery of intended services by exhausting resources of computing nodes, we need a solution to recognize important resources for the essential services which have to be maintained under any circumstances and to adapt the system to the urgent situation and reconfigure itself properly. In this paper, we present a two-phase scheme to handle the problem. In the first phase, by means of dynamic resource reallocation within a computing node, we try to make the selected essential services survive even after the occurrence of an attack. For the second phase when it becomes impossible to continue the service in spite of the actions taken in the first phase, we apply server replication in order to continue the transparent provision of the essential services with the end users by utilizing redundant computing nodes previously arranged. Experimental result obtained on a testbed reveals the validity of the proposed scheme. A comparison with other proposed schemes has been conducted by analyzing the performance and the cost.

A multi-server architecture has been proposed to increase the efficiency of resources due to the rapid growth of computer networks and service providing servers. The smartcard-based authentication protocol in the multi-server environments has been continuously developed through various studies. Recently, Chun-Ta Li et al proposed an authentication protocol that solves Xiong Li el al's authentication protocol vulnerability to user impersonation attack and session key disclosure attack. However, Chun-Ta Li et al's authentication protocol has a problem with user impersonation in the vulnerability analysis and has an unsuitable authentication process. Therefore, this paper proposes a smartcard-based authentication protocol in the multi-server environments that solves the denial of service attack and replay attack vulnerabilities of the authentication protocol proposed by Xiong Li et al.

As the IT industry develops, the smart-phone technology and functions which are actively being studied at the moment greatly influence the entire living environment. With the smart-phone technology and functions, people's interest for the wireless LAN which can be used to get access to the Internet anytime anywhere is gradually increasing. However, since the malicious attacker can easily carry out hacking or approach the contents due to the characteristics of the wireless radio wave, the personal information with a high level of importance for data security is easily exposed due to Spoofing, Denial of Service attack and Man in the Middle attack. Therefore, the demand for security is gradually increasing. In this paper, the safe wireless network service environment is provided by supplementing the vulnerability in regard to Spoofing, Session Hijacking and Man in the Middle attack after executing the client's authentication process, the AP authentication process and the Mobile Agency authentication process with the client's information in the USIM, the AP information and the Mobile Agency information when the client uses the wireless Internet through the Mobile Agency AP access in the smart phone environment.

DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack is a critical threat to current Internet. To solve the detection and response of DDoS attack on BcN, we have investigated detection algorithms of DDoS and Implemented anomaly detection modules. Recently too many technologies of the detection and prevention have developed, but it is difficult that the IDS distinguishes normal traffic from the DDoS attack Therefore, when the DDoS attack is detected by the IDS, the firewall just discards all over-bounded traffic for a victim or absolutely decreases the threshold of the router. That is just only a method for preventing the DDoS attack. This paper proposed the mechanism of response for the legitimated clients to be protected Then, we have designed and implemented the statistic based system that has the automated detection and response functionality against DDoS on Linux Zebra router environment.

It is very difficult to completely block the DDoS attack, which paralyzes services by depleting resources or occupying the network bandwidth by transmitting a vast amount of traffic to the specific website or server from normal users' PCs that have been already infected by an outside attacker. In order to defense or endure the DDoS attack, we usually use various solutions such as IDS (Intrusion Detection System), IPS (Intrusion Prevention System), ITS (Intrusion Tolerance System), FW (Firewall), and the dedicated security equipment against DDoS attack. However, diverse types of security appliances cause the cost problem, besides, the full function of the equipments are not performed well owing to the unproper setting without considering connectivity among systems. In this paper, we present the effective connectivity of security equipments and countermeasure methodology against DDoS attack. In practice, it is approved by experimentation that this designed methdology is better than existing network structure in the efficiency of block and endurance. Therefore, we would like to propose the effective security control measures responding and enduring against discriminated DDoS attacks through this research.
