“…The proposed CS_DDoS system offers a solution to securing stored records by classifying the incoming packets and making a decision based on the classification results. Qinghua Li [2], proposed a distributed scheme to detect if a node has violated its rate limits. It provide rigorous analysis on the probability of detection, and evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of our scheme with extensive trace-driven simulations.…”

“…When considering internal attacks such as flooding attacks, authentication of packets does not guarantee delivery to the destination nodes thus making bundle flooding in DTN an open issue [20]. A few techniques [21], [22] have been proposed to mitigate flooding attacks in DTNs.…”

Abstract-In the event of a disaster, there is a severe damage/destruction to physical infrastructures such as telecommunication and power lines which result in the disruption of communication in this areas. For such scenarios, Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) provides an alternative means of communication.In Delay Tolerant Networks (DTNs), a message from a source node may be delivered to the destination node despite the nonexistence of an infrastructure and an end-to-end connectivity. However DTNs are susceptible to security threats such as DoS attacks targeted at disrupting relayed packets or dropping critical packets during a disaster rescue operation. DoS attacks consist of blackhole, grayhole, wormhole, packet flooding attacks etc. The scope of this paper is to study the impacts of blackhole and packet flooding attacks in a post disaster communication network using DTN. Various performance metrics in DTN have been used to study the impacts of different DoS attacks in DTN and a comprehensive analysis is presented.

“…The proposed protocol was an improvement over earlier techniques in terms of energy efficiency and resilience to attack. Li et al [15] addressed flood network attacks by malicious insiders though a distributed protocol of enforced rate limits. Some WPAN nodes cannot support even relatively efficient bit-layer security protocols, so Yang et al [16] detected and localized spoofing attackers by analyzing received signal strength (RSS).…”

“…Data confidentiality, message integrity, and device authentication are all important security considerations for wireless networks, given the vulnerable Manuscript 15.4 specification includes optional protection using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for data confidentiality, message integrity codes (MICs), or both. Sensitive information such as utility billing, patient data, and control messages should all be encrypted while traversing a WPAN, yet research finds that AES Counter Mode (encryption without MIC) must be avoided because an attacker can modify the cyphertext and the unprotected cyclic redundancy check such that unauthorized packets are accepted [6].…”

Wireless networks are particularly vulnerable to spoofing and route poisoning attacks due to the contested transmission medium. Recent works investigate physical layer features such as received signal strength or radio frequency fingerprints to localize and identify malicious devices. In this paper we demonstrate a novel and complementary approach to exploiting physical layer differences among wireless devices that is more energy efficient and invariant with respect to the environment. Specifically, we exploit subtle design differences among transceiver hardware types. Transceivers fulfill the physicallayer aspects of wireless networking protocols, yet specific hardware implementations vary among manufacturers and device types. In this paper we demonstrate that precise manipulation of the physical layer header prevents a subset of transceiver types from receiving the manipulated packet. By soliciting acknowledgments from wireless devices using a small number of packets with manipulated preambles and frame lengths, a response pattern identifies the true transceiver class of the device under test. Herein we demonstrate a transceiver taxonomy of six classes with greater than 99% accuracy, irrespective of environment. We successfully demonstrate wireless multi-factor authentication, intrusion detection, and transceiver type fingerprinting through preamble manipulation.
