      • Novel Mechanism to Defend DDoS Attacks Caused by Spam

        Dhinaharan Nagamalai,Cynthia Dhinakaran,Jae Kwang Lee 보안공학연구지원센터 2007 International Journal of Smart Home Vol.1 No.2

        Corporate mail services are designed to perform better than public mail services. Fast mail delivery, large size file transfer as an attachments, high level spam and virus protection, commercial advertisement free environment are some of the advantages worth to mention. But these mail services are frequent target of hackers and spammers. Distributed Denial of service attacks are becoming more common and sophisticated. The researchers have proposed various solutions to the DDOS attacks. Can we stop these kinds of attacks with available technology? These days the DDoS attack through spam has increased and disturbed the mail services of various organizations. Spam penetrates through all the filters to establish DDoS attacks, which causes serious problems to users and the data. In this paper we propose a novel approach to defend DDoS attack caused by spam mails. This approach is a combination of fine tuning of source filters, content filters, strictly implementing mail policies, educating user, network monitoring and logical solutions to the ongoing attack. We have conducted several experiments in corporate mail services; the results show that this approach is highly effective to prevent DDoS attack caused by spam. The novel defense mechanism reduced 60% of the incoming spam traffic and repelled many DDoS attacks caused by spam.

      • An In-depth Analysis of Spam and Spammers

        Dhinaharan Nagamalai,Beatrice Cynthia Dhinakaran,Jae Kwang Lee 보안공학연구지원센터 2008 International Journal of Security and Its Applicat Vol.2 No.2

        Electronic mail services have become an important source of communication for millions of people all over the world. Due to this tremendous growth, there has been a significant increase in spam traffic. Spam messes up user’s inbox, consumes network resources and spread worms and viruses. In this paper we study the characteristics of spam and the technology used by spammers. In order to counter anti spam technology, spammers change their mode of operation, therefore continues evaluation of the characteristics of spam and spammers technology has become mandatory. These evaluations help us to enhance the existing anti spam technology and thereby help us to combat spam effectively. In order to characterize spam, we collected four hundred thousand spam mails from a corporate mail server for a period of 14 months from January 2006 to February 2007. For analysis we classified spam based on attachment and contents. We observed that spammers use software tools to send spam with attachment. The main features of this software are hiding sender’s identity, randomly selecting text messages, identifying open relay machines, mass mailing capability and defining spamming duration. Spammers do not use spam software to send spam without attachment. From our study we observed that, four years old heavy users email accounts attract more spam than four years old light users mail accounts. Relatively new email accounts which are 14 months old do not receive spam. But in some special cases like DDoS attacks, we found that new email accounts receive spam and 14 months old heavy users email accounts have attracted more spam than 14 months old light users. We believe that this analysis could be useful to develop more efficient anti spam techniques.
