트래픽 세션의 포트 역할을 이용한 네트워크 공격 시각화

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a simple and useful method using a port role to visualize the network attacks. The port role defines the behavior of the port from the source and destination port number of network session. Based on the port role, the port provides the brief security features of each node as an attacker, a victim, a server, and a normal host. We have automatically classified and identified the type of node based on the port role and security features. We detected and visualized the network attacks using these features of the node by the port role. In addition, we are intended to solve the problems with existing visualization technologies which are the reflection problem caused an undirected network session and the problem caused decreasing of distinct appearance when occurs a large amount of the sessions. The proposed method monitors anomalies occurring in an entire network and displays detailed information of the attacker, victim, server, and hosts. In addition, by providing a categorized analysis of network attacks, this method can more precisely detect and distinguish them from normal sessions.
