NetScreen's Deep Inspection Firewall: Making Application-Level Attack Protection Pervasive
White Paper This paper describes the implementation of NetScreen's DI firewall, explains how DI protects against application attacks, demonstrates how customers can control and manage the application-level protection, and discusses various deployment... [25 Jul 2008]
Security in the Palm of Your Hand
White Paper Physical theft and loss continue to be the main attack vectors against handheld devices. Their improved capabilities have made these devices a business platform with the potential for exposing sensitive information. [18 Jul 2008]
Multi-Layer, Mission-Aware QoS Management Techniques for IP Applications in a Joint Battlespace Infosphere
White Paper It describes an MBNM prototype system for an Air Force Cooperative Attack mission with swarms of unmanned aerial vehicles. This paper presents an overall architecture and prototype for Mission-Based Network Management in a Joint Battlespace... [18 Jul 2008]
The Long Tail of Risk and the Dynamics of the Security Market
White Paper As soon as one bad guy develops a new attack, other bad guys can flock to it and may quickly create large losses. An organization's platform and its risks are never in equilibrium for long; as long as equilibrium exists, risks are under control and... [18 Jul 2008]
Mitigation of DoS Attacks Through QoS Regulation
White Paper The scheme provides a general, and not attacks specific, mechanism to provide graceful server degradation in the face of such an attack. As more and more critical services are provided over the Internet, the risk to these services from malicious... [18 Jul 2008]
A Gateway-Based Defense System for Distributed DoS Attacks in High-Speed Networks
White Paper The current network equipments are lack of the countermeasure capacity to such kind of DDoS attack and do not provide the mechanisms to support the extension of the new DDoS attack countermeasures. A set of gateways are deployed at different... [11 Jul 2008]
Rapid Response Monitoring Services, Inc. Ensures Security and Business Commitments With Managed BorderGuard High Security VPN Services
White Paper With the threat of attack from hackers becoming more tangible each day, RRMS wanted to add an additional layer of protection to its security systems to meet the risk head-on and bolster the critical requirements of the business. [11 Jul 2008]
An Efficient Filter for Denial-of-Service Bandwidth Attacks
White Paper A key benefit of TOPS is that it uses few computational resources and does not slow down during an attack. This paper presents an efficient method for detecting and filtering denial-of-service bandwidth attacks. [11 Jul 2008]
Mitigating Bandwidth-Exhaustion Attacks Using Congestion Puzzles: (Extended Abstract)
White Paper The paper demonstrates through analysis and simulation that CP can effectively defend networks from flooding attacks without relying on the formulation of attack signatures to filter traffic. This paper presents Congestion Puzzles (CP), a new... [11 Jul 2008]
MULTOPS: A Data-Structure for Bandwidth Attack Detection
White Paper A denial-of-service bandwidth attack is an attempt to disrupt an online service by generating a traffic overload that clogs links or causes routers near the victim to crash. This paper proposes a heuristic and a data-structure that network devices... [10 Jul 2008]
Microsoft Executive Circle Webcast: Mitigating Risk: Prepare Your Network for the Next Attack
White Paper While there is no substitute for patch management when it comes readying the systems and network against the next attack, there are strategies that can be implemented today to help mitigate the risk and impact of security attacks. [10 Jul 2008]
Juniper's Deep Inspection Firewall: Making Application-Level Attack Protection Pervasive
White Paper As data-driven, application-layer attacks have proliferated in recent years, it has become increasingly clear that the existing solution set is not adequate to counter these threats in a cost-efficient manner. [10 Jul 2008]
Distributed Intrusion Detection and Attack Containment for Organizational Cyber Security
White Paper The sheer number and sophistication of cyber attacks are making the nation's critical computer networks increasingly vulnerable. At the same time, these networks are being called upon to play a key role in processing, data storage, monitoring and... [10 Jul 2008]
Hypothesizing and Reasoning About Attacks Missed by Intrusion Detection Systems
White Paper Several alert correlation methods have been proposed over the past several years to construct high-level attack scenarios from low-level intrusion alerts reported by Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs). [10 Jul 2008]
Bandwidth Stealing Via Link-Targeted RoQ Attacks
White Paper This paper presents a scheme that enables a set of flows to acquire an unfair share of bandwidth by mounting an adversarial distributed Reduction of Quality (RoQ) attack on flows competing for that bandwidth. [10 Jul 2008]
