Description:

This paper re-examines the denial-of-service issue. It looks at the techniques used to accomplish denial of service including process recovery, resource destruction (crash), and resource overload. Looking at how DOS functions allows for the design of other DOS attacks aimed at the processes used by the operating system, the network protocols and the users.

Description:
|
This document describes a simple and efficient method for random selection of a client port number, such that the possibility of an attacker guessing the exact value is reduced. While this is not a replacement for cryptographic methods, the described port number randomization algorithms provide improved security/obfuscation with very little effort and without any key management overhead. The mechanisms described in this document are a local modification that may be incrementally deployed, and that does not violate the specifications of any of the transport protocols that may benefit from it, such as TCP, UDP, SCTP, DCCP, and RTP.
