Presentation

Towards Capturing Representative Attack Patterns

Abstract: The cost for launching network attacks dramatically decreases since the convenience of hacker’s tools. Countermeasures in applications can not catch up.

This presentation will discuss the possible ways that lead to detect and prevent attacks before they reach the victims. It would include:

• Internet topology
• Zombie distribution
• Traffic analysis
• Statistical and stochastic models
