In this paper, low-rate TCP attack as one of shrew attacks is considered and the scaling based dynamic time warping (S-DTW) algorithm is introduced. The low-rate TCP attack can not be detected by the detection method for the previous flooding DoS/DDoS (Denial of Service/Distirbuted Denial of Service) attacks due to its low average traffic rate. It, however, is a periodic short burst that exploits the homogeneity of the minimum retransmission timeout (RTO) of TCP flows and then some pattern matching mechanisms have been proposed to detect it among legitimate input flows. A DTW mechanism as one of detection approaches has proposed to detect attack input stream consisting of many legitimate or attack flows, and shown a depending method as well. This approach, however, has a problem that legitimate input stream may be caught as an attack one. In addition, it is difficult to decide a threshold for separation between the legitimate and the malicious. Thus, the causes of this problem are analyzed through simulation and the scaling by maximum auto-correlation value is executed before computing the DTW. We also discuss the results on applying various scaling approaches and using standard deviation of input streams monitored.

The purpose of the study is to contribute to the positive development of blockchain technology by providing data to examine security vulnerabilities and threats to blockchain-based services and review countermeasures. The findings of this study are as follows. Threats to the security of blockchain-based services can be classified into application security threats, smart contract security threats, and network (P2P) security threats. First, application security threats include wallet theft (e-wallet stealing), double spending (double payment attack), and cryptojacking (mining malware infection). Second, smart contract security threats are divided into reentrancy attacks, replay attacks, and balance increasing attacks. Third, network (P2P) security threats are divided into the 51% control attack, Sybil attack, balance attack, eclipse attack (spread false information attack), selfish mining (selfish mining monopoly), block withholding attack, DDoS attack (distributed service denial attack) and DNS/BGP hijacks. Through this study, it is possible to discuss the future plans of the blockchain technology-based ecosystem through understanding the functional characteristics of transparency or some privacy that can be obtained within the blockchain. It also supports effective coping with various security threats.

서비스 거부공격(Denial of Sevice)이란 서버의 자원을 고갈시켜 더이상 정상적인 서비스를 할 수 없도록 하는 공격이다. DoS 공격 중에서 SYN Flooding DoS Attack을 받은 웹 서버는 외부로부터 들어온 공격 패킷에 의해 back log를 소모하게 된다. 그 결과 정상적인 연결 요청에 대해 서비스를 제공하지 못하게 된다. Dos 공격에 관한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있지만, 본 논문에서는 서비스 거부공격이 TCP 상태 전이에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구를 하였다. 웹 서버의 Tcp 상태정보를 얻기 위해 GetTcpinfo 프로세스를 실행한 후 정상적인 접속을 시도해 보고 정상적인 접속이 진행되고 있는 상태에서 DoS 공격을 시도한다. GetTcpinfo 프로세스에 의해 파일로 저장된 TCP 상태전이 값을 분석하여 DoS 공격이 TCP 상태 전이에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아본다.

One of the most essential foundations upon which big institutions rely in delivering cloud computing and hosting services, as well as other kinds of multiple digital services, is the security of infrastructures for digital and information services throughout the world. Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) assaults are one of the most common types of threats to networks and data centers. Denial of service attacks of all types operates on the premise of flooding the target with a massive volume of requests and data until it reaches a size bigger than the target's energy, at which point it collapses or goes out of service. where it takes advantage of a flaw in the Transport Control Protocol's transmitting and receiving (3-way Handshake) (TCP). The current study's major focus is on an architecture that stops DDoS attacks assaults by producing code for DDoS attacks using a cloud controller and calculating Round-Tripe Time (RTT).

Recently, DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack has emerged as one of the major threats and it's main characteristic is to send flood of data packets toward a specific victim. Thus, several attack detection schemes which monitor the destination IP address of packets have been suggested. The existing Bloom Filter based attack detection scheme is simple and can support real-time monitoring. However, since this scheme monitors the separate fields of destination IP address independently, wrong detection is comparatively high. In this paper, in order to solve this drawback, an efficient Bloom Filter based destination address monitoring scheme is proposed, which monitors not only separate fields but also relationship among separate fields. In the results of simulation, the proposed monitoring scheme outperforms the existing Bloom Filter based detection scheme. Also, to improve the correctness of detection, multi-layerd structure is proposed and the correctness of result is improved according to the number of layers and extra tables.

Mobile Ad-hoc Networks provide communication without a centralized infrastructure, which makes them suitable for communication in disaster areas or when quick deployment is needed. On the other hand, they are susceptible to malicious exploitation and have to face different challenges at different layers due to its open Ad-hoc network structure which lacks previous security measures. Denial of service (DoS) attack is one that interferes with the radio transmission channel causing a jamming attack. In this kind of attack, an attacker emits a signal that interrupts the energy of the packets causing many errors in the packet currently being transmitted. In harsh environments where there is constant traffic, a jamming attack causes serious problems; therefore measures to prevent these types of attacks are required. The objective of this paper is to carry out the simulation of the jamming attack on the nodes and determine the DoS attacks in OPNET so as to obtain better results. We have used effective anomaly detection system to detect the malicious behaviour of the jammer node and analyzed the results that deny channel access by jamming in the mobile Ad-hoc networks.

TCP-related Flooding attacks still dominate Distributed Denial of Service Attack. It is a great challenge to accurately detect the TCP flood attack in hish speed network. In this paper, we propose the NIC_Cookie logic implementation, which is a kind of security offload engine against TCP-related DDoS attacks, on network interface card. NIC_Cookie has robustness against DDoS attack itself and it is independent on server OS and external network configuration. It supports not IP-based response method but packet-level response, therefore it can handle attacks of NAT-based user group. We evaluate that the latency time of NIC_Cookie logics is $7{\times}10^{-6}$ seconds and we show 2Gbps wire-speed performance through a benchmark test.

Development of Information and Communication technology coming to activity of internet banking and electronic business, and smart card of medium is generalized prevailing for user authentication of electronic signature certificate management center with cyber cash, traffic card, exit and entrance card. In field that using public network, security of smart cart and privacy of card possessor's is very important. Point of smart card security is use safety for smart card by user authentication. Anonymous establishment for privacy protection and denial of service attack for availability is need to provision. In this paper, after analyze for Hwang-Li, Sun's, L-H-Y scheme, password identify element is a change of safety using one time password hash function. We proposed an efficient new smart card authentication protocol against anonymity and denial of service.

센서 네트워크에 대한 보안은 일반 네트워크와 동일하게 보안성, 무결성, 가용성 등이 요구된다. 그러나 일반적으로 센서 네트워크는 무선 통신을 하는 네트워크이고, 고정된 인프라가 없으며, 네트워크 토폴로지가 자주 변하는 특징으로 인해 보안문제는 어려운 것으로 인식되고 있다. 특히, 센서 노드의 에너지와 같은 자원 고갈을 유발하여 정상적인 동작을 못하게 하는 서비스 거부(Denial of Service, DoS)와 같은 공격에 취약하다. 본 논문에서는 센서 네트워크의 일반적인 구성을 통해 발생할 수 있는 DoS 공격의 유형을 분석하고, 보안요구사항을 제시하였다. 제시한 보안요구사항은 DoS 공격 뿐 아니라 센서 네트워크에서 발생할 수 있는 다양한 공격 유형에 대한 보안요구사항을 마련하는 데에 기초가 될 것으로 기대한다.

By mistaking normal packets for harmful traffic, it may not offer service according to the intention of attacker with harmful traffic, because it is not easy to classify network traffic for normal service and it for DUoS(Distributed DoS) attack like the Internet worm. And in the IPv6 environment these researches on harmful traffic are weak. In this dissertation, hosts in the IPv6 environment are attacked by NETWIB and their attack traffic is monitored, then the statistical information of the traffic is obtained from MIB(Management Information Base) objects used in the IPv6. By adapting the ESM(Exponential Smoothing Method) to this information, a normal traffic boundary, i.e., a threshold is determined. Input traffic over the threshold is thought of as attack traffic.
