  1. DDoS Attack and Its Defense CSE551: Introduction to Information Security CSE551 Handout on DDoS

  2. Outline • What is a DDOS attack? • How to defend a DDoS attack? CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm

  3. What is DDoS attack? • Internet DDoS attack is real threat • - on websites • · Yahoo, CNN, Amazon, eBay, etc (Feb. 2000) •  services were unavailable for several hours • - on Internet infrastructure • · 13 root DNS servers (Oct, 2002) •  7 of them were shut down, 2 others partially unavailable • Lack of defense mechanism on current Internet CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm

  4. What is a DDos Attack? • DoS attacks: • Attempt to prevent legitimate users of a service from using it • Examples of DoS include: • Flooding a network • Disrupting connections between machines • Disrupting a service • Distributed Denial-of-Service Attacks • Many machines are involved in the attack against one or more victim(s) CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm

  7. CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm

  8. What Makes DDoS Attacks Possible? • Internet was designed with functionality & not security in mind • Internet security is highly interdependent • Internet resources are limited • Power of many is greater than power of a few CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm

  9. To Address DDoS attack • Ingress Filtering - P. Ferguson and D. Senie, RFC 2267, Jan 1998 - Block packets that has illegitimate source addresses - Disadvantage : Overhead makes routing slow • Identification of the origins (Traceback problem) - IP spoofing enables attackers to hide their identity - Many IP traceback techniques are suggested • Mitigating the effect during the attack - Pushback CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm

  10. IP Traceback - Allows victim to identify the origin of attackers - Several approaches ICMP trace messages, Probabilistic Packet Marking, Hash-based IP Traceback, etc. CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm

  11. PPM • Probabilistic Packet Marking scheme - Probabilistically inscribe local path info - Use constant space in the packet header - Reconstruct the attack path with high probability Making at router R For each packet w Generate a random number x from [0,1) If x < p then Write IP address of R into w.head Write 0 into w.distance else if w.distance == 0 then wirte IP address of R into w.tail Increase w.distance endif CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm

  16. What is Pushback? • A mechanism that allows a router to request adjacent upstream routers to limit the rate of traffic CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm

  17. How Does it Work? • A congested router request other adjacent routers to limit the rate of traffic for that particular aggregate. • Router sends pushback message • Received routers propagates pushback CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm

  18. Conclusion • What is a DDoS attack? • Defending a DDoS attack • Ingress filtering • Trace-back • Push-back CSE551 Handout on DDoS and Worm
