Abstract

How should an attacker, who wishes to hurt (deny) service, attack resources on a geographically distributed system in order to maximize the damage inflicted? Should attack efforts focus on a small number of regions (sites) or rather spread over many regions to yield wide spread effect? Consequently, how resources should be optimized as to minimize the gain of a damage-maximizing attacker? These are the questions that motivate this research and are at its core.
