Recently, the number of internet service companies is increasing and so is the number of malicious attackers. Damage such as distrust about credit and instability of the service by these attacks may influence us fatally as it makes companies image failing down. One of the frequent and fatal attacks is DoS(Denial-of-Service). Because the attacker performs IP spoofing for hiding his location in DoS attack it is hard to get an exact location of the attacker from source IP address only. and even if the system recovers from the attack successfully, if attack origin has not been identified, we have to consider the possibility that there may be another attack again in near future by the same attacker. This study suggests to find the attack origin through MAC address marking of the attack origin. It is based on an IP trace algorithm, called Marking Algorithm. It modifies the Martins Algorithm so that we can convey the MAC address of the intervening routers, and as a result it can trace the exact IP address of the original attacker. To improve the detection time, our algorithm also contains a technique to improve the packet arrival rate. By adjusting marking probability according to the distance from the packet origin we were able to decrease the number of needed packets to traceback the IP address.

As the threat of Distributed Denial-of-Service attacks that exploit weakly secure IoT devices has spread, research on source-side Denial-of-Service attack detection is being activated to quickly detect the attack and the location of attacker. In addition, a collaborative source-side attack detection technique that shares detection results of source-side networks located at individual sites is also being activated to overcome regional limitations of source-side detection. In this paper, we evaluate the performance of a collaborative source-side DDoS attack detection using statistical weights. The statistical weight is calculated based on the detection rate and false positive rate corresponding to the time zone of the individual source-side network. By calculating weighted sum of the source-side DoS attack detection results from various sites, the proposed method determines whether a DDoS attack happens. As a result of the experiment based on actual DNS request to traffic, it was confirmed that the proposed technique reduces false positive rate 2% while maintaining a high attack detection rate.

Denial of Service (DoS) 공격은 현재 심각한 국가적 보안 문제로 떠오르고 있다. DoS 란, 많은양의 네트워크 트래픽을 발생시켜 속도를 매우 느리게 만들거나, 가용 자원을 고갈시켜 사용자에게 서비스를 정상적으로 제공하지 못하도록 만드는 공격이다. 그 중에서 Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS)는 네트워크에 분산된 컴퓨터들을 감염시켜 공격에 사용하기 때문에 더 위험하다. DDoS 종류 중 한가지인 Smurf Attack 은 ICMP ECHO 와 IP 브로드캐스트를 이용하여 많은 양의 트래픽을 발생시킨다. 본 논문에서는 Smurf Attack 에 쓰이는 ICMP ECHO REQUEST 패킷을 조각화시켜서 전송할 시, 피해자에게 전송되는 패킷의 숫자가 기존 방법보다 증가하고 피해자 컴퓨터의 IP 스택에서 발생하는 취약점을 도출하고 그로 인한 피해를 분석하였다. 끝으로 ICMP ECHO 패킷의 조각화를 방지하기 위한 방안을 제시하였다.

DoS Attack (Denial-of-Service Attack)이란 공격자가 침입대상 시스템의 시스템 자원과 네트워크 자원을 악의적인 목적으로 소모시키기 위하여 대량의 패킷을 보냄으로써 정상 사용자로 하여금 시스템이 제공하는 서비스를 이용하지 못하도록 하는 공격을 의미한다. 현재 이러한 대부분의 DoS 공격은 인터넷 프로토콜 중 TCP 프로토콜을 주로 이용하고 있다. 이에 호스트의 연결요청이 발생하였을 경우 TCP 프로토콜을 기준으로 서버의 트래픽 변화율을 확인함으로써 DoS 공격을 분석하는 것이다. 서버의 트래픽 변화율은 호스트가 요청한 연결의 발생빈도에 따라 변화하는 서버의 연결요청 처리 시간 변화율을 확인하는 방법으로 확인할 수 있다. 이와 같은 방법으로 확인된 서버의 트래픽 변화율은 일정 시간동안의 변화율 증강을 모니터링 함으로써 DoS 공격에 참여하는 호스트가 요청하는 연결의 발생빈도를 간접적으로 확인하는데 이용할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 호스트의 연결요청과 서버의 트래픽 변화율간 관계를 이용하여 DoS 공격의 특성을 분석하고자 한다.

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.

DDoS attacks is upgrade of DoS attacks. Botnet is being used by DDoS attack, so it is able to attack a millions of PCs at one time. DDoS attacks find the root the cause of the attack because it is hard to find sources for it, even after the treatment wavelength serious social problem in this study, the analysis and countermeasures for DDoS attack is presented.

As the Distributed Denial of Service attack technique is getting smarter, defense method have been developed by various means. Existing defense method baseds on detection technique is not effective to DDoS attack. Because it depend on rule set that is used to detect attack and DDoS attack pattern has become very similar to real traffic pattern. So the rule set is not efficient method to find DDoS attack. To solve this problem, DDoS defense mechanism based on QoS technique has been suggested. In this paper, we summarize existing DDoS defense mechanism and focus on method based on QoS, and introduce a new DDoS defense framework.

It has been proposed that several RFID authentication protocols based on hash chain. Status based authentication protocol and challenge-response based authentication protocol are secured against location tracking attacks, spoofing attacks, replay attacks, traffic analysis attacks but are vulnerable to Dos attacks. RFID authentication protocol with strong resistance against traceability and denial of service attack is secured against location tracking attack, spoofing attacks, replay attacks, DoS attacks but are vulnerable to traffic analysis attacks. The present study suggests a more secure and lightweight RFID authentication protocol which is combining the advantages of hash-chain authentication protocol and RFID authentication protocol with strong resistance against traceability and denial of service attack. The results of the secure analysts for a proposed protocol are illustrated that it is secured against location tracking attacks, spoofing attacks, replay attacks, traffic analysis attacks, Dos attacks and is a lightweight operation between server and tag.

In this paper, the performance of the DoS information security algorithm is evaluated to provide the multimedia traffic between the nodes using the multicasting services. The essence technology for information security to distribute the multimedia contents is presented. Under the multicasting services, a node participating new group needs a new address and the node compares the collision with the existing nodes, then DoS attack can be occurred between the nodes by a malicious node. Using the NS2 simulator, the number of DoS attacks, the average number of trials to generate new address, and the average time to create address are analyzed. From simulation results, the efficient algorithm with relevant random number design according to the DRM network is needed to provide secure multimedia contents distribution.

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.
