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, QoS/QoE technology as a part of the HTTP-based adaptive streaming technology has attracted attention. In this paper, we find out HTTP-based adaptive and dynamic streaming technology. It is based on a dynamic adaptive streaming system over HTTP, which is designed and implemented. The system consist of conversion by the bit rate of MPEG2-TS files, division of segment, creation of MPD(Media Presentation Description) and bitrate's player through analysis of MPD File between servers and clients in network environments of dynamic and adaptive. This diverse network environments, continuous and smooth playback of video will be used in various multimedia fields.

Recently, the number of cloud web applications is increasing owing to the accelerated migration of enterprises and public sector information systems to the cloud. Traditional network attacks on cloud web applications are characterized by Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, which consume network resources with a large number of packets. However, HTTP DoS attacks, which consume application resources, are also increasing recently; as such, developing security technologies to prevent them is necessary. In particular, since low-bandwidth HTTP DoS attacks do not consume network resources, they are difficult to identify using traditional security solutions that monitor network metrics. In this paper, we propose a new detection model for detecting HTTP DoS attacks on cloud web applications by collecting the application metrics of web servers and learning them using machine learning. We collected 18 types of application metrics from an Apache web server and used five machine learning and two deep learning models to train the collected data. Further, we confirmed the superiority of the application metrics-based machine learning model by collecting and training 6 additional network metrics and comparing their performance with the proposed models. Among HTTP DoS attacks, we injected the RUDY and HULK attacks, which are low- and high-bandwidth attacks, respectively. As a result of detecting these two attacks using the proposed model, we found out that the F1 scores of the application metrics-based machine learning model were about 0.3 and 0.1 higher than that of the network metrics-based model, respectively.

The continuously growing internet service requirements has resulted in a multitier system structure consisting of web server and database (DB) server. In this multitier structure, the existing intrusion detection system (IDS) detects known attacks by matching misused traffic patterns or signatures. However, malicious change to the contents at DB server through hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) requests at the DB server cannot be detected by the IDS at the DB server's end, since the DB server processes structured query language (SQL) without knowing the associated HTTP, while the web server cannot identify the response associated with the attacker's SQL query. To detect these types of attacks, the malicious user is tracked using knowledge on interaction between HTTP request and SQL query. However, this is a practical challenge because system's source code analysis and its application logic needs to be understood completely. In this study, we proposed a scheme to find the HTTP request associated with a given SQL query using only system log files. We first generated an HTTP request-SQL query map from system log files alone. Subsequently, the HTTP request associated with a given SQL query was identified among a set of HTTP requests using this map. Computer simulations indicated that the proposed scheme finds the HTTP request associated with a given SQL query with 94% accuracy.

An application-layer attack can effectively achieve its objective with a small amount of traffic, and detection is difficult because the traffic type is very similar to that of legitimate users. We have discovered a unique characteristic that is produced by a difference in client intention: Both a legitimate user and DDoS attacker establish a session through a 3-way handshake over the TCP/IP layer. After a connection is established, they request at least one HTTP service by a Get request packet. The legitimate HTTP user waits for the server's response. However, an attacker tries to terminate the existing session right after the Get request. These different actions can be interpreted as a difference in client intention. In this paper, we propose a detection algorithm for application layer DDoS attacks based on this difference. The proposed algorithm was simulated using traffic dump files that were taken from normal user networks and Botnet-based attack tools. The test results showed that the algorithm can detect an HTTP-Get flooding attack with almost zero false alarms.

The purpose of this study was to define an interactive learning object of ILO through implementation of learning object content standardization technology for the reuse of interactive tools between learners, and to develop I(Interactive)-HTTP for the ILO to properly communicate with LMS. 1-HTTP developed here was enabled to keep connection status during the entire session by improving the existing HTTP with its stateless connection property. This ceaseless connection made it possible to provide users with the real-time interactivity between learners that happened frequently in the ILO. Also, because the I-HTTP was an expanded version of HTTP, it was possible to conduct general HTML documentation as well as ILO. In particular, the standardized launch process between LMS and ILO was embodied in adding the INIT, GETVAL, SETVAL, COMMBT, FINISH methods in the protocol, and the results from the interactivity between ILO learners were channeled to the database storage to save them through separately defined data models.

In this paper, we present an application layer protocol to support secure wireless Internet services, called Application Layer Security(ALS). The drawbacks of the two traditional approaches to secure wireless applications motivated the development of ALS. One is that in the conventional application-specific security protocol such as Secure HyperText Transfer Protocol(S-HTTP), security mechanism is included in the application itself. This gives a disadvantage that the security services are available only to that particular application. The other is that a separate protocol layer is inserted between the application and transport layers, as in the Secure Sockets Layer(SSL)/Transport Layer Security(TLS). In this case, all channel data are encrypted regardless of the specific application's requirements, resulting in much waste of network resources. To overcome these problems, ALS is proposed to be implemented on top of HTTP so that it is independent of the various transport layer protocols, and provides a common security interface with security applications so that it greatly improves the portability of security applications. In addition, since ALS takes advantages of well-known TLS mechanism, it eliminates the danger of malicious attack and provides applications with various security services such as authentication, confidentiality integrity and digital signature, and partial encryption. We conclude this paper with an example of applying ALS to the solution of end-to-end security in a present commercial wireless protocol stack, Wireless Application Protocol.

DDoS attacks have became as a social threat since 2009 7.7 DDoS turmoil. Even though defence techniques have been developing to provide against those threats, they become much more sophisticate. In recent years, the attack form of DDoS is changing from high amount of traffic attack of network layers to highly sophisticate small amount of application layers. To make matters worse, attack agent for the attack has became very intelligent so that it is difficult to be blocked since it can't be distinguished from normal PCs. In the user authentication system(such as CAPTCHA) User intervention is required to distinguish normal PCs and intelligent attack agents and in particular, in a NAT environment, IP-based blocking method can be cut off the normal users traffic at the same time. This research examined defense techniques which are able to distinguish between agent and normal PC and effectively block ways the HTTP DDoS offense applying one-time session key based authentication method using Cookie which is used in HTTP protocol to protect web sever from sophisticate application layer of DDoS.
