LoRDAS: A Low-Rate DoS Attack against Application Servers

摘要: In a communication network, there always exist some specific servers that should be considered critical infrastructure to protected, specially due the nature of services they provide. this paper, low-rate denial service attack against application is presented. The gets advantage known timing mechanisms in server behaviour wisely strike ON/OFF waveforms cause service, while traffic rate sent controlled, thus allowing bypass defense rely on detection high traffics. First, we determine conditions present potential victim attack. As an example, persistent HTTP case presented, being procedure for striking it described. Moreover, efficiency achieved by evaluated both simulated and real environments, its studied according variations configuration parameters. aim work denounce feasibility such attacks order motivate development mechanisms.
