Constructing Inter-Domain Packet Filters to Control IP Spoofing Based on BGP Updates
Abstract
The Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack is a serious threat to the legitimate use of the Internet. Prevention mechanisms are thwarted by the ability of attackers to forge or spoof the source addresses in IP packets. By employing IP spoofing, attackers can evade detection and put a substantial burden on the destination network for policing attack packets. In this paper, we propose an inter-domain packet filter (IDPF) architecture that can mitigate the level of IP spoofing on the Internet. A key
