Empirical Study of Tolerating Denial-of-Service Attacks With the Fosel Architecture
White Paper However filtering techniques suffer from two main challenges: the accuracy detection of DoS traffic and processing time. Filtering techniques are one of the main approaches to protect applications from Denial of Service... [02 Oct 2009]
A PKI Approach Targeting the Provision of a Minimum Security Level Within Internet
White Paper After decades of expansion, Internet became an essential tool useful for professionals and private individuals providing a large range of services like emailing, management of bank accounts, reservation of hotels, train time schedules,... [02 Oct 2009]
Alcatel-Lucent's New Enterprise Class of High Availability
White Paper In a converged environment that supports voice traffic and real-time data, this is especially important, since the network infrastructure must deliver the same or better availability as the public 911 safety network. [02 Oct 2009]
Advancing Highways With Communication Solutions: Cost-Effective Ways to Address Growing Demands on Highway Infrastructure
White Paper These applications offer an array of benefits, including reduced traffic congestion, better services at lower cost and decreased emissions. Highway authorities worldwide are facing rapid growth in the number of passenger... [02 Oct 2009]
Wireless Intrusion Prevention Systems
White Paper While an attacker needs physical access to a wired network in order to launch an attack, a wireless network allows anyone within its range to passively monitor the traffic or even start an attack. The wireless networks... [02 Oct 2009]
Using NetFlow Auditor to Assist in Identifying Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks and Other Network Behavior Anomalies
White Paper The paper will reflect a method to alert when changes occur outside of learnt baselines and how new patterns can be recognized when security analysts have access to technology that provides high visibility of traffic... [02 Oct 2009]
Inputs of Coma: Static Detection of Denial-of-Service Vulnerabilities
White Paper These DoS attacks exploit the semantics of the target application, are rarely associated with network traffic anomalies, and are thus extremely difficult to detect using conventional methods. As networked systems grow in... [02 Oct 2009]
Accurately Measuring Denial of Service in Simulation and Testbed Experiments
White Paper These metrics are not versatile because they fail to monitor all traffic parameters that signal service degradation. Researchers in the Denial of Service (DoS) field lack accurate, quantitative and versatile metrics to... [02 Oct 2009]
Detecting Pulsing Denial-of-Service Attacks With Nondeterministic Attack Intervals
White Paper The Vanguard detection is based on three traffic anomalies induced by the attacks, and it detects them using a CUSUM algorithm. This paper addresses the important problem of detecting Pulsing Denial of Service (PDoS)... [02 Oct 2009]
Overcoming IP Telephony Performance Issues in a Converged Network
White Paper When implementing Voice over IP (VoIP) onto a data network, you must ensure that the equipment capable of handling the additional load, and, more importantly, that the traffic will be properly classified, marked, and... [01 Oct 2009]
VoIP Phone Hardening - Part 1
White Paper Unlike vendors whose security offerings protect individual devices in the voice system, Cisco provides comprehensive, integrated security that protects the entire network over which voice traffic travels. [01 Oct 2009]
Facebook Connect: Wizards and translators aim to connect with more sites
News At last count, about 15,000 sites had implemented Facebook Connect, a product that statistics firm Hitwise says gave the social network enough momentum to propel it past once-bigger rival MySpace in terms of US traffic. [01 Oct 2009]
Innovation Network Lecture Series: The Journey Towards the Converged Data Center - Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and ISCSI
White Paper For decades, the IT industry has tried out a number of technologies, looking for one that can provide a single network that could accommodate all traffic needs. Ethernet has long been considered a top contender, but only... [01 Oct 2009]
The Attacker Within: How Hackers Are Targeting Enterprises From the Inside-Out
White Paper URL filtering has become a standard control within most enterprises to enforce policy for Internet bound traffic. However, with Web 2.0, as dynamic and user generated content becomes the norm, static URL databases are of... [01 Oct 2009]
Network Assurance & Regulatory Compliance: Closing the Gap Between Policies & Defenses
White Paper Failure to understand how traffic actually flows through or around defenses makes these gaps difficult to spot before a material weakness occurs. In a dynamic network environment, constant changes to the network cause... [01 Oct 2009]
