DOS attack, the short of Denial of Service attack is an internet intrusion technique which harasses service availability of legitimate users. To respond the DDoS attack, a lot of methods focusing attack source, target and intermediate network, have been proposed, but there have not been a clear solution. In this paper, we purpose the prevention of malicious activity and early detection of DDoS attack by detecting and removing the activity of botnets, or other malicious codes. For the purpose, the proposed method monitors the network traffic, especially DSN traffic, which is originated from botnets or malicious codes.

Considering that interkorean relations got worse and worse recently, cyber terror of North Korea has seriously become a possibility. Therefore, DoS(Denial of Service), a typical way of cyber terror, is becoming a big issue. Consequently, people are growing more and more interested in information security. Internal DoS attacks, out of a variety of ways of Dos attacks, include disks and memories and shortages of process resources. PAM(Pluggable Authentication Module) is one of the ways of preventing internal DoS attacks in Linux system. This paper provides with a method to internally respond to dos attacks and efficiently prevent shortages of resources by utilizing PAM.

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 2018, Cui et al proposed a three-factor remote user authentication scheme using biometrics. Cui et al claimed that their authentication scheme is vulnerable to eavesdropping attack, stolen smart card attack, and especially Dos(denial-of-service) attack. Also they claimed that it is safe to password guessing attack, impersonation attack, and anonymity attack. In this paper, however, we analyze Cui et al's authentication scheme and show that it is vulnerable to replay attack, insider attack, stolen smart card attack, and user impersonation attack, etc. In addition, we present the design flaws in Cui et al's authentication scheme as well.

Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS)은 원격지의 사용자들을 인증하기 위한 대표적인 프로토콜이다. 기존의 RADIUS인증은 인증 서버가 클라이언트 IP, URI정보와 같은 데이터 통신의 기본사항만을 확인한 후 세션을 설정한다. 하지만, 악의적인 공격자가 IP 혹은 URI정보를 위/변조해서 인증을 요청하거나 반복적인 인증요청을 통한 DOS(Denial Of Service)공격을 수행할 경우 부적절한 인증, 사용자의 인증시간 지연 및 실패와 같은 심각한 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 클라이언트와 서버가 공유하는 데이터의 Hash값을 검증한 후, Packet Signing 방식을 활용해서 유효한 사용자에게만 서버접근을 허용하는 방안을 제안한다.

Cloud computing is now used by most companies, business centres and academic institutions to embrace new computer technology. Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) are limited to certain services, missing some of the assets requested by their customers, it means that different clouds need to interconnect to share resources and interoperate between them. The clouds may be interconnected in different characteristics and systems, and the network may be vulnerable to volatility or interference. While information technology and cloud computing are also advancing to accommodate the growing worldwide application, criminals use cyberspace to perform cybercrimes. Cloud services deployment is becoming highly prone to threats and intrusions. The unauthorised access or destruction of records yields significant catastrophic losses to organisations or agencies. Human intervention and Physical devices are not enough for protection and monitoring of cloud services; therefore, there is a need for more efficient design for cyber defence that is adaptable, flexible, robust and able to detect dangerous cybercrime such as a Denial of Service (DOS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) in heterogeneous cloud computing platforms and make essential real-time decisions for forensic investigation. This paper aims to develop a framework for digital forensic for the detection of cybercrime in a joined heterogeneous cloud setup. We developed a Digital Forensics model in this paper that can function in heterogeneous joint clouds. We used Unified Modeling Language (UML) specifically activity diagram in designing the proposed framework, then for deployment, we used an architectural modelling system in developing a framework. We developed an activity diagram that can accommodate the variability and complexities of the clouds when handling inter-cloud resources.

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.

In the coming age of information warfare, information security patterns need to be changed such as to the active approach using offensive security mechanisms rather than traditional passive approach just protecting the intrusions. In an active security environment, it is essential that, when detecting an intrusion, the immediate confrontation such as analysing the intrusion situation in realtime, protecting information from the attacks, and even tracing the intruder. This paper presents an active intrusion-confronting system using a fake session and a honeypot. Through the fake session, the attacks like Dos(Denial of Service) and port scan can be intercepted. By monitoring honeypot system, in which the intruders are migrated from the protected system and an intrusion rule manager is being activated, new intrusion rules are created and activated for confronting the next intrusions.

It is very important to detect and remove original sources of DOS (Denial of Service) attacks or connection oriented/connectionless attacks. In this paper, we implement a traceback system that does not require the reaction of routers and administrators and does not need log data. We bring in a traceback server and traceback agents in each network and use sniffing and spoofing schemes. Finally, the traceback server detects attacking hosts using information transmitted from traceback agents.

Radio jamming attack is the most effective and easiest Denial-of-Service (DOS) attack in wireless network. In this paper, we proposed a multi-channel MAC protocol to mitigate the jamming attacks by using cognitive radio. The Cognitive Radio (CR) technology supports real-time spectrum sensing and fast channel switching. By using CR technologies, the legitimate nodes can perform periodic spectrum sensing to identify jamming free channels and when the jamming attack is detected, it can switch to un-jammed channel with minimum channel switching delay. In our proposed protocol, these two CR technologies are exploited for thwarting the jamming attacks.
