A Principle of a Data Synthesizer for Performance Test of Anti-DDOS Flood Attacks

Overview Distributed Denial-Of-Service (DDOS) flood attacks remain a big issue in network security. Real events of DDOS flood attacks show that an attacked site (e.g., server) usually may not be overwhelmed immediately at the moment attack packets arrive at that site but sometime late. Therefore, a site has a performance to resist DDOS flood attacks. To test such a performance, data synthesizer is desired. This paper introduces a principle to synthesize packet series according to a given value of the Hurst parameter for performance test of anti-DDOS flood attacks.
