ReAct: Reflection attack mitigation for asymmetric routing
Guest Post: DDoS attacks continue to be a destructive force on the Internet. ReAct was created to provide efficient and effective mitigation against AR-DDoS attacks, when routing is either symmetric or asymmetric.
Detecting and characterizing DDoS scrubbing from global BGP routing
Guest Post: Analysing public BGP data to characterize the real‑world behaviour of five major scrubbing services.
Make this one change to prevent IPv6 routing loops in your network
Guest Post: Routing loops cause packets to circulate between routers. This can congest links, enable DDoS attacks, and ultimately reduce the stability and reliability of the Internet. The good news is that IPv6 routing loops are easy to prevent.
On misusing transparent DNS forwarders For amplification attacks
Guest Post: Research shows the threat vector introduced by transparent DNS forwarders that enable access to shielded recursive resolvers, and scale better in terms of potential attack volume.
A first look at the adoption of BGP-based DDoS scrubbing services: A five-year longitudinal analysis
Guest Post: A first global look at how many networks use BGP-based DDoS scrubbing — revealing who’s protected, how adoption has grown, and what it means for Internet resilience.
Reflecting on 10 years in open source network security: Lessons from FastNetMon
Guest Post: How DDoS attacks have evolved over the last decade, and how the FastNetMon Community project has grown in response.
Decoding TCP SYN for stronger network security
Guest Post: How honeypot data can reveal network risks through header-only analysis of TCP SYN segments.
Observing the DDoS landscape requires collaboration
Guest Post: An industry-academic analysis on trends in direct-path and reflection-amplification attacks to encourage greater common understanding of the DDoS landscape.
