Frequency of attacks on web services and the resulting damage continue to grow as web services become popular. Techniques used in web service attacks are usually different from traditional network intrusion techniques, and techniques to protect web services are badly needed. Unfortunately, conventional intrusion detection systems (IDS), especially those based on known attack signatures, are inadequate in providing reasonable degree of security to web services. An application-level IDS, tailored to web services, is needed to overcome such limitations. The first step in developing web application IDS is to analyze known attacks on web services and characterize them so that anomaly-based intrusion defection becomes possible. In this paper, we classified known attack techniques to web services by analyzing causes, locations where such attack can be easily detected, and the potential risks.

In this paper, we analyse the vulnerability of spam attacks and develop the Spamtester to confirm these spam attacks in SIP-based VoIP networks. Although there are several spam attacks on VoIP networks, the detail information for the SPIT is not enough to confirm the procedure and the result of spam attacks on VoIP networks. Specially, the spam attacks through abnormal process are difficult to trace the sender of spam. Also, it is not easy to impose the legal restriction to the spammer because of lack of information for the spam attack. Therefore, on VoIP networks, the possible scenario and detail procedure for VoIP spam is needed to be confirmed. This paper designes and implementes the spamtester, which is helpful to protect VoIP networks from the spam attacks.
