  • Mistaking normal packets for harmful traffic may not offer service in conformity with the intention of attacker with harmful traffic, because it is not easy to classify network traffic for normal service and it for DDoS(Distributed Denial of Service) attack. And in the IPv6 environment these researches on harmful traffic are weak. In this dissertation, hosts in the IPv6 environment are attacked by NETWOX 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.

  • Attacks on existing sensor networks include sniffing, flooding, and spoofing attacks. The basic countermeasures include encryption and authentication methods and switching methods. Wormhole attack, HELLO flood attack, Sybil attack, sinkhole attack, and selective delivery attack are the attacks on the network layer in wireless sensor network (WSN). These attacks may not be defended by the basic countmeasures mentioned above. In this paper, new countermeasures against these attacks include periodic key changes and regular network monitoring. Moreover, we present various threats (attacks) in the network layer of wireless sensor networks and new countermeasures accordingly.

  • Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is an infrastructure-less network that can configure itself without any centralized management. The topology of MANET changes dynamically which makes it open for new nodes to join it easily. The openness area of MANET makes it very vulnerable to different types of attacks. One of the most dangerous attacks is the Resource Consumption Attack (RCA). In this type of attack, the attacker consumes the normal node energy by flooding it with bogus packets. Routing in MANET is susceptible to RCA and this is a crucial issue that deserves to be studied and solved. Therefore, the main objective of this paper is to study the impact of RCA on two routing protocols namely, Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) and Dynamic Source Routing (DSR); as a try to find the most resistant routing protocol to such attack. The contribution of this paper is a new RCA model (RCAM) which applies RCA on the two chosen routing protocols using the NS-2 simulator.

  • This paper proposes the design of 3-party negotiation protocol for the security of self_organized storage which consists of the owner node possessing data, the holder node holding the owner's data and the verification node verifying the data of the holder node on infra-cloud environment. The proposed security technique delegating the data verification of the holder node to the verification node increases the efficiency of the self-organized storage. In addition, the encrypt key and certification of the storage created by EC-DH algorithm enhances the security much more. Also, when the self-organized storage is composed, the security technique not only prevents external flooding attack by setting a certification key among three parties, but also prevents internal flooding attack by restricting the number of verification nodes. And The replay attack which can occur in the step of verification is automatically detected by using the created seed value whenever the verification is requested.

  • The user valence of VoIP services with SIP protocol is increasing rapidly because of cheap communication cost and its conveniency. But attacker can easily modify the packet contents of SIP protocol as SIP header is transmitted by using UDP methods in text form. The reason is that SIP protocols does not provide an authentication function on the transmission session. Therefore, existing SIP protocol is very weak on SIP Packet Flooding attack etc. In order to solve like this kinds of SIP vulnerabilities, we used SIP status codes under the monitoring module for detecting SIP Flooding attacks and additionally proposed an advanced protocol where the authentication and security function is strengthened about SIP packet. We managed SIP session spontaneously in order to strengthen security with SIP authentication function and to solve the vulnerability of SIP protocol. The proposed mechanism can securely send SIP packet to solves the security vulnerability with minimum traffic transmission. Also service delay in SIP proxy servers will be minimized to solve the overload problem on SIP proxy server.

  • The need for network security is being increasing due to the development of information communication and internet technology. In this paper, firewall models, operating system models and other network component models are constructed. Each model is defined by basic or compound model, referencing DEVS formalism. These models and the simulation environment are implemented with MODSIM III, a general purpose, modular, block-structured high-level programming language which provides direct support for object-oriented programming and discrete-event simulation. In this simulation environment with representative attacks, the following three attacks are generated, SYN flooding and Smurf attack as an attack type of denial of service, Mail bomb attack as an attack type of e-mail. The simulation is performed with the models that exploited various security policies against these attacks. The results of this study show that the modeling method of packet filtering system, proxy system, unix and windows NT operating system. In addition, the results of the simulation show that the analysis of security performance according to various security policies, and the analysis of correlation between availability and confidentiality according to security empowerment.

  • 최근 지능화된 DDoS 공격 추세를 반영하여 DRDoS 및 HTTP GET flooding 공격을 네트워크 내 탐지 포인터에서 검출할 수 있는 방법을 살펴본다. DRDoS 공격은 해커들이 스푸핑 된 IP 주소를 사용하기 때문에 기본적으로 은닉형 공격자로 판단할 수 있다. HTTP GET flooding 공격은 해커의 제어 하에 실제적으로 IP 주소를 위장하여 공격을 시도하는 좀비 PC를 검출하는 것도 중요하지만 좀비 PC를 제어하는 C&C 서버로의 통신 채널을 탐지 및 차단하는 것과 C&C 서버에 접근하는 해커를 추적하는 것이 더 원론적인 방어전략이 될 수 있으며 관련 은닉형 DDoS 공격에 대한 국내외 기술개발 동향 및 대응 기술 추세에 대해서 살펴본다.

  • Emergency medical information center performs role of medical direction about disease consult and pre-hospital emergency handling scheme work to people. Emergency medical information system plays a major role to be decreased mortality and disability of emergency patient by providing information of medical institution especially when emergency patient has appeared. But, various attacks as a hacking have been happened in Emergency medical information system recently. In this paper, we proposed security structure which can protect the system securely by detecting attacks from outside effectively. Intrusion detection was performed using rule based detection technique according to protocol for every packet to detect attack and intrusion was reported to control center if intrusion was detected also. Intrusion detection was performed again using decision tree for packet which intrusion detection was not done. We experimented effectiveness using attacks as TCP-SYN, UDP flooding and ICMP flooding for proposed security structure in this paper.

  • Traditional DDoS defence methods are performed at server side which was attacked. If servers detect DDoS attack, they use some methods for defending the attack such as increasing the bandwidth, bypassing the traffic, blocking the IP addresses or blocking the ports by the firewall. But as lots of people use smart-phones, it is possible a smart-phone to be a zombie and DDoS attack could be much more a huge and powerful forms than now. Victims are not only a server but also a host which becomes a zombie. While it performs DDoS attack, zombie smart-phone users have to pay the extra charge. After finish the attack, DDoS try to destroy hard drives of zombie hosts. Therefore the situation is changed rather than to defend DDoS server side only, we should protect a client side who needs to prevent DDoS attacks. In this paper, we study a defence method that we terminates a process which perform the attack, send the information to different hosts when a zombie PC or smart-phone perform DDoS attacks.

  • 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.
