TCP - IP White Papers

Robust TCP Stream Reassembly in the Presence of Adversaries

Tags:
tcp - ip

Overview There is a growing interest in designing high-speed network devices to perform packet processing at semantic levels above the network layer. Some examples are layer-7 switches, content inspection and transformation systems, and network intrusion detection/ prevention systems. Such systems must maintain per-flow state in order to correctly perform their higher-level processing. A basic operation inherent to per-flow state management for a transport protocol such as TCP is the task of reassembling any out-of-sequence packets delivered by an underlying unreliable network protocol such as IP.

Analysis: The network is the security

This means that the network will perform the same functions that firewalls, intrusion detection and prevention, antivirus and content-filtering systems do today. Network devices will have the ability to tear apart packets, block malicious code...

Cisco net phones have software flaw

DNS servers are located throughout the internet to perform this translation and to ensure that IP packets arrive at their proper destinations. The flaw can be exploited using specially crafted DNS packets containing invalid information in the...

VoIP: Don't forget about security

I'm waiting to see the security tool which is a network packet sniffer that reassembles packets on the fly," Murray says. Before the overhaul, the company's network was badly hit by the Blaster worm, which flooded routers with junk packets.

How BI can help IT win over the board

We've all seen it happen - a company buys an expensive intrusion detection system or application firewall and puts it in a corner where it emits a quiet, comforting hum. But putting a presentation layer on top of the data - with BI tools - could...

The dos and don'ts of VoIP security

Additional tools that will help networks in case of any attack are intrusion detection and prevention systems, which scan for rogue incoming packets, and straightforward antivirus software which can help prevent any known threats from disrupting...

How closely are you monitoring?

Plug an SNMP (simple network management protocol) or RMON (remote monitoring) agent into a node on the network to get an idea of what it's doing, or use network flow analysis to pick up information about what's being sent over the wire.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
