Abstract
AbstractThe paper considers the software simulation tool DDoSSim which has been developed for comprehensive investigation of Internet DDoS attacks and defense mechanisms. This tool can be characterized by three main peculiarities: agent-oriented approach to simulation, packet-based imitation of network security processes, and open library of different DDoS attacks and defense mechanisms. DDoSSim allows deeply investigating various attacks and defense methods and generating valuable recommendations on choosing the best defense. In the paper the agent-oriented approach suggested is considered. The taxonomy of input and output parameters for simulation is outlined. The main DDoSSim components are specified. One of the experiments on protection against DDoS attacks demonstrates some DDoSSim possibilities. We consider different phases of defense operations – learning, decision making and protection, including adaptation to the actions of malefactors.KeywordsSecurity modeling and architectureSecurity models for ambient intelligence environmentsInfrastructure securitySecurity simulationDDoS
