BlueJAI Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Hi, I'm trying to compile a list of various types of DoS Attacks and countermeasures, and I would really appreciate it if anyone could tell me of any attacks they know of that I have not listed below: SYN Flooding UDP Flooding FRAG Flood Ping of Death Smurf Attack GET Request DNS Amplification LAND Attack TCP RST P2P Attack Shrew Attack CGI Request Attack If you know of any that are not there, then please let me know. Many thanks in advance. BlueJAI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Cooper Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Have you checked Wikipedia as it has useful list of some denial of service attacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueJAI Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 Have you checked Wikipedia as it has useful list of some denial of service attacks. Yup, I have, as well as Google Scholar and IEEE. What I've been looking into recently are the Low Rate DoS attacks like the Shrew Attack, trying to get a better understanding of it. The More DoS attacks I can get together though the better. Thanks for your reply BlueJAI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the help. BlueJAI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
