Abstract

See full text

Methods and systems for detection and mitigation of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks against network applications/services/devices in near real-time are provided. According to one embodiment, multiple access requests are received at a network device from a source Internet Protocol (IP) address. Temporal and/or spacial information relating to the access requests are stored in a first database operatively coupled with the network device. It is determined based on a first defined condition whether compression is to be performed on the stored temporal and/or spacial information. When a result of the determining is affirmative, then the stored temporal and/or spacial information is compressed. One or more compression ratios of the compressed temporal and/or spacial information with respect to the stored temporal and/or spacial information in uncompressed form are computed. The source IP address is identified as malicious based on the one or more compression ratios.
