Abstract

Denial of Service (DoS) attacks are a serious threat for the Internet. DoS attacks can consume memory, CPU, and network resources and damage or shut down the operation of the resource under attack (victim). The quality of service (QoS) enabled networks, which offer different levels of service, are vulnerable to QoS attacks as well as DoS attacks. The aim of a QoS attack is to steal network resources, e.g., bandwidth, or to degrade the service perceived by users. We present a classisificaton and a brief explanation of the approaches used to deal with the DoS and QoS attacks. Futhermore, we propose network monitoring techniques to detect service violations and to infer DoS attacks. Finally, a quantitative comparison among all schemes is conducted, in which, we highlight the merits of each scheme and estimate the overhead (both processing and communication) introduced by it. The comparison provides guideliness for selecting the appropriate scheme, or a combination of schemes, based on the requirements and how much overhead can be tolerated.
