- Abstract
- Recently Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks are increasing in the application-layer attacks more than 70% of DDoS attacks with non IP spoofing. These DDoS attacks still dominate the ranking of cyber threats. It is a great challenge to accurately detect and intercept the DDoS attacks on high speed network. In particular, HTTP-GET flooding attacks are increasing day by day. Therefore, we propose the web server protection scheme against HTTP-GET flooding attacks. Most of all, it was implemented in our Gigabit Ethernet Secure Network Interface Controller (GESNIC) for the high performance DDoS prevention. Our GESNIC lets IT administrators protect their Internet servers against various DDoS attacks. It provides the high performance secure logics, which is a kind of security offload engine against TCP and HTTP related DDoS attacks on network interface card. Besides, the secure offload engine has robustness against various DDoS attacks itself and it is independent of server's OS and external network configuration. In summary, installing our GESNIC can make more secure, highly available, and easier to manage. © 2013 International Information Institute.
