“…The complexity is moved to the level of coordination of services (often called orchestration [44]). Moreover, a number of additional problems need to be addressed due to the distributed nature of the Microservices approach (e.g., trust and certification [15,20]).…”

In this chapter we offer an overview of microservices providing the introductory information that a reader should know before continuing reading this book. We introduce the idea of microservices and we discuss some of the current research challenges and real-life software applications where the microservice paradigm play a key role. We have identified a set of areas where both researcher and developer can propose new ideas and technical solutions. The Shift Towards DistributionHistory of programming languages, paradigms and software architectures have been characterized in the last few decades by a progressive shift towards distribution, modularization and loose coupling. The purpose is to increase code reuse and robustness [17,29], ultimately a necessity dictated by the need of increasing software quality, not only in safety and financial-critical applications [39], but also in more common off-the-shelf software packages. The two directions of modularization 1 (code reuse and solid design) and robustness (software quality and formal methods: verification/correctness-by-construction) advanced to some extent independently and pushed by different communities, although with a non-empty overlap.

“…Consequently, there is no way to deploy a global security mechanism or policy and it is often impossible to investigate cross-network traffic behaviour, due to privacy issues. Automated trust negotiation (TN) mechanisms [27] have been proposed to deal with the heterogeneous and open nature of the Internet, but real-word solutions are still missing.…”

“…In addition, we plan to link the interactive DDoS taxonomy to an up-to-date database of malwares that are able to perform such attacks. We will also supply this database with root/mirai/build.sh (27) compile bot i586 mirai.x86 "$FLAGS -DKILLER REBIND SSH -static" (28) compile bot mips mirai.mips "$FLAGS -DKILLER REBIND SSH -static" (29) compile bot mipsel mirai.mpsl "$FLAGS -DKILLER REBIND SSH -static" (30) compile bot armv4l mirai.arm "$FLAGS -DKILLER REBIND SSH -static" (31) compile bot armv5l mirai.arm5n "$FLAGS -DKILLER REBIND SSH" (32) compile bot armv6l mirai.arm7 "$FLAGS -DKILLER REBIND SSH -static" (33) compile bot powerpc mirai.ppc "$FLAGS -DKILLER REBIND SSH -static" (34) compile bot sparc mirai.spc "$FLAGS -DKILLER REBIND SSH -static" (35) compile bot m68k mirai.m68k "$FLAGS -DKILLER REBIND SSH -static" (36) compile bot sh4 mirai.sh4 "$FLAGS -DKILLER REBIND SSH -static"…”

The Internet of Things (IoT) revolution has not only carried the astonishing promise to interconnect a whole generation of traditionally “dumb” devices, but also brought to the Internet the menace of billions of badly protected and easily hackable objects. Not surprisingly, this sudden flooding of fresh and insecure devices fueled older threats, such as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. In this paper, we first propose an updated and comprehensive taxonomy of DDoS attacks, together with a number of examples on how this classification maps to real-world attacks. Then, we outline the current situation of DDoS-enabled malwares in IoT networks, highlighting how recent data support our concerns about the growing in popularity of these malwares. Finally, we give a detailed analysis of the general framework and the operating principles of Mirai, the most disruptive DDoS-capable IoT malware seen so far.
