Ip Address Shuffling Using Moving Target Defense (Mtd)

Abstract

Enormous people are getting attracted to growing network technologies. Today, almost the whole world wants to get connected to information technology. Likewise, attackers are also getting smarter to trap victims. Due to this, victims are facing tremendous problems in terms of different network attacks such as DDOS, botnet, IP prefix hijacking, etc. The major reason behind these attacks is static and deterministic network configuration. So, Moving Target Defense (MTD) is a method that will overcome the static IP configuration. MTD introduces two patterns for randomly shuffling network configuration in the form of DYNAT and NASR. In this project, we present a brief introduction to the research achievements of network address shuffling according to two shuffling patterns which are identified and defined by us. We then summarize and analyze the supporting techniques 2 and related features for each network address shuffling technique mentioned in this project. What's more, the key issues to implement an effective network address shuffling mechanisms are implemented, with the expectation of invigorating subsequent research.
