摘要: Denial of Service attacks have become a weapon for extortion and vandalism causing damages in the millions dollars to commercial government sites. Legal prosecution is powerful deterrent, but requires attribution attacks, currently difficult task. In this paper we propose method automatically fingerprint identify repeated attack scenarios—a combination attacking hosts tool. Such fingerprints not only aid criminal civil attackers, also help justify focus response measures. Since packet contents can be easily manipulated, base our on spectral characteristics stream which are hard forge. We validate methodology by applying it real captured at regional ISP comparing outcome with header-based classification. Finally, conduct controlled experiments isolate factors that affect fingerprint.
