Internet Threat Monitoring (ITM) systems are a widely deployed facility to detect, analyze, and characterize dangerous Internet threats such as worms and distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. Nonetheless, an ITM system can also become the target of attacks. In this paper, we address localization attacks against ITM systems in which an attacker impairs the effectiveness of an ITM system by...
"The Marauder's Map" is a magical map in J. K. Rowling's fantasy series, "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban". It shows all moving objects within the boundary of the "Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry". In this paper, we introduce a similar attack to location privacy in wireless networks. Our system, namely the digital Marauder's map, can reveal the locations...
In this paper, we study a new class of attacks, the invisible LOCalization (iLOC) attack, which can accurately and invisibly localize monitors of Internet threat monitoring (ITM) systems, a class of widely deployed facilities to characterize Internet threats, such as worm propagation, denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. In the iLOC attack, the attacker launches low-rate port-scan traffic, encoded with...
