One of the main problems of network security is Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) caused by TCP SYN packet flooding. To counteract SYN flooding attack, several defense methods...
In a communication network, there always exist some specific servers that should be considered a critical infrastructure to be protected, specially due to the nature of the servic...
In recent years, Denial of Service attacks have evolved into a predominant network security threat. In our previous work, we identified the necessary building blocks for an effect...
