Tuning Cisco IOS Firewall Denial-of-Service Protection
White Paper Prior to Cisco IOS Software Release 12.4(11)T, Cisco IOS Firewall provided Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack protection as a default when either Classic or Zone-Based Policy Firewall was applied. Cisco IOS Software Release 12.4(11)T modified the... [02 Jul 2008]
Vulnerabilities of Intrusion Detection Systems in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks - The Routing Problem
White Paper This systems are usually focused on detecting problems with the routing systems to prevent DoS and Man-in-the-middle and, despite of the amount of papers written which try to solve, many of them are just theoretical and have only been proved in... [02 Jul 2008]
Denial of Service Tuning for Cisco IOS Software Firewall and Intrusion Prevention System
White Paper UDP sessions without acknowledgement are likely indicative of DoS activity, or attempts to connect between two hosts where one of the hosts has become unresponsive. Cisco IOS Stateful Packet Inspection maintains counters of the number of "Half-open... [02 Jul 2008]
Network Intrusion Detection & Response System
White Paper As computer networks become increasingly complex and network Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks become more common place, automated network intrusion detection and response will be critical in providing reliable network services. [02 Jul 2008]
Network Intrusion Detection & Active-Response System
White Paper A particularly notorious attack is the Denial of Service (DoS) attack on data communication networks, which has the potential of crippling government networks and posing great threats to national safety and security, or business networks causing... [02 Jul 2008]
Fuzzy Intrusion Detection System
White Paper The key idea is to use soft computing for detecting intrusive behaviors and Denial of Service attacks (DoS). The basic intent of a DoS attack either overwhelms the resources allocated by a networked device to a particular service in order to... [01 Jul 2008]
Maximizing Firewall Availability: Techniques on Improving Resilience to Session Table DoS Attacks
White Paper Modern day firewalls are expected to withstand ever increasing amounts of traffic loads while providing higher resilience and lower latency. Along with these elevated goals, comes a greater responsibility to be conscientious of all aspects of... [30 Jun 2008]
A Source Address Filtering Firewall to Defend Against Denial of Service Attacks
White Paper Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks exploit a very fundamental fact that the computation and bandwidth resources of their targets are limited. This paper proposes a firewall mechanism that tries to filter off the malicious packets when the protected... [30 Jun 2008]
Evaluating Application-Aware Firewall Performance
White Paper The rise of application-layer DoS attacks, the popularity of Network Address Translation (NAT), and the need for advanced network security capabilities have spawned the development of application-aware firewalls. [30 Jun 2008]
Efficient Embedded Firewall for Communication Appliances
White Paper This paper presents the ideas behind the design of an efficient firewall to protect against DoS attacks. Denial-of-Service attacks are a major concern in VoIP deployments. IP phones are especially vulnerable because of their inherent imbalance in... [30 Jun 2008]
