Abstract

In the current Internet architecture, traffic is commonly routed to its destination using DNS names that are mapped to IP addresses, yet there are no inherent means for receivers to attribute sources of traffic to senders or for receivers to authorize senders. These deficiencies leave the Internet and its connected hosts vulnerable to a wide range of attacks including denial-of-service and misrepresentation (spoofing, phishing, etc.) which continue to cause material damage. In this mechanism to combat these vulnerabilities by introducing attribution and authorization into the network using a transient addressing scheme to establish attribution through DNS, establish authorization at the host, and enforce authorization and attribution in the network. In this work, I developed and characterized a system for effecting in-network enforcement at the router, and I demonstrate the enforcement is possible on current commodity hardware at sustained throughput rates Ill above common Internet connection rates. The current internet architecture allows hosts to send arbitrary IP packets across a network, which may not reflect valid source address information. IP spoofing and Denial of service attacks are ubiquitous. Filtering techniques are not sufficient enough to counter these attacks. Current Internet design calls for in-network authentication of addresses and attribution of traffic they generate. In this architecture the destination can only be reached through a valid capability. The aim of this dissertation is to implement Evasive Internet Protocol for the end hosts and measure the preliminary performance as compared to current internet protocols.
