“…As shown by the denial of government and banking service in Estonia in 2007, wholesale assaults can be deployed from one state to another by "patriotic hackers," while the originating state proclaims its inability to stop the assault (Michael et al 2010). Attackers freely choose the scale of their own organization, the proximity of their targets, and the precision necessary to achieve their desired effects.…”

Ample empirical evidence points to recent power shifts in multiple areas of international relations taking place between industrialized countries and emerging powers, and between states and non-state actors. Yet there is a dearth of theoretical interpretation and synthesis of these findings, and a growing need for coherent approaches to understand and measure the transformation. This edited series aims to bring together scholars from all major world regions as well as different disciplines in order to discuss and possibly blend their different approaches and provide new frameworks for the understanding of global affairs and the governance of global power shifts.

“…Since flooding-based DoS attack could be launched with very less effort comparing with other attacks, it has been widely adopted to flood resources of victims and cause service disruption. There have been many approaches proposed to reduce Internet threats [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23].…”

based DoS network activities are not isolated, but related as different stages of a series of cyber-attacks. Intuitively, their traces could be caught even though they are carefully hidden behind normal network activities and have forged footprints. For example, the distribution of inter-arrival time of a series of malicious requests on a web-server could be identified even through those malicious requests implemented with forged IP headers. In order to launch a successful flooding-based DoS attack, the hacker has to make large enough requests to overwhelm the target's service capacity. Therefore, such malicious service requests are tended to be intensive and follow best-effort approach.The remainder of this paper is organized as follows: Section 2 reviews related work. Section 3 covers background of flooding-based DoS attack. Section 4 introduces the simulated normal and malicious traffic. Section 5 describes characteristics of the selected network traffic captured by CADIA. Section 6 explains fluid-based approach on a single congested network. Section 7 discusses performance of our model under the simulated normal and malicious traffic. Section 8 concludes this paper and points out future work. Related WorkSeveral literatures have studied and addressed strategies for mitigating cyber-attacks. Lobo et al.[9] studied attacks and countermeasures of the Windows Rootkits: software that is used to hide malicious activities and permit hackers to take control of victims. Several suggestions were issued to the Microsoft and research communities for developing future Windows operating systems. Shafi [10] surveyed security challenges in Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). Agresti [11] proposed four distinct forces that will shape the future evolution of cybersecurity. Michael et al. [12] emphasized the importance of integrating legal and policy in cyber-preparedness. Eom et al. [13] developed an active cyber-attack model for accessing network vulnerabilities. Yu et al. [14] discussed models and countermeasures for AbstractNetwork traffic traces provide valuable information for researchers to study behaviors of normal and malicious network activities. Although traffic traces are enough to reveal packet-level and connection-level details of most network activities, identifying specific malicious network activities is still a huge challenge: many malicious network activities are able to hide themselves behind normal activities with forged packet and connection information. In practice, mechanisms that are able to effectively extract malicious network activities from raw traffic traces are emerging and will benefit network security and other related communities as well. In this paper, a fluid-based approach for modeling simulated normal and malicious flooding-based denial of service network activities is developed. To approach this goal, several raw traffic traces gathered by the Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis (CADIA) are analyzed and investigated.
