+ | ====== DDoS Attack using Google-bots ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Project Outline: | ||
+ | Not long ago, botnets - networks of compromised computers - were seen as | ||
+ | the most effective (if not the only) means of conducting Distributed Denial | ||
+ | of Service (DDoS) attacks. However, with the growing popularity and prevalence | ||
+ | of application-layer over other types of DDoS attacks, the DDoS execution | ||
+ | landscape is becoming increasingly more diverse. An especially interesting | ||
+ | new trend is the execution of application-layer DDoS attacks by means of | ||
+ | skillfully manipulated Web-crawlers, | ||
+ | The goal of this project is to design, implement and test a real-world | ||
+ | framework consisting of the following: a) the attacker' | ||
+ | domain specially designed to attract Google-bots and then manipulate them | ||
+ | into generating attack traffic towards the target/ | ||
+ | victim' | ||
+ | component, the project will also look into the statistical/ | ||
+ | estimation of the framework' | ||
+ | to an actual (real-world) target/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | Recommended Background: CSE 3213 or CSE 3214, CSE 3482 | ||
