Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Computer Science - IT-Security, grade: Merit, The Open University, course: MSc Advanced Networking, language: English, abstract: This research report investigated the potential risks from DoS (Denial of Service) attacks
faced by SMEs (Small to Medium-sized Enterprises) that have an online presence. From the
examination of case studies, reports, global surveys, and discussions with IT professionals
this report evaluates which DoS attacks are the most prolific, and which DoS threats
organisations need to secure against. From the results of the investigation it can be seen that
the potential risk of becoming the target of a DoS attack continues to pose a significant threat
to an organisation regardless of the size. It was evident from the results of the initial research
that further investigation was required to evaluate which DoS threat were of most concern to
SMEs (Small to Medium sized Enterprises). Through practical experimentation in a
controlled network laboratory environment, a number of DoS attacks that are of current
concern to SMEs were investigated, the main purpose of this investigation was to evaluate
appropriate mitigation strategies to secure against the identified DoS attacks. This report
concludes by highlighting that SMEs may be susceptible to well-known DoS attacks when
deploying network hardware in default configuration, and by identifying the appropriate DoS
mitigation options available to network and security administrators associated with SMEs.
The conclusion also shows how these DoS mitigation options can be practically applied to the
type of network hardware typically deployed in a SME environment.

Autoren-Porträt von Andy Reed
As well as being heavily involved with consulting, teaching and training in the IT security and networking sectors I have been active in research for over a decade. I hold a BSc, PGSC, PGDip and an MSc in Networking and Security. I'm currently undertaking Doctoral research into security concerns within MANETs (Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks) with the Center for Security, Communications and Network Research at Plymouth University. I hold a number of vendor based qualification, and still deliver training for IT professionals wishing to gain Cisco CCNA, CCNA-Security, CCNP and VoIP, Juniper, Microsoft and CISSP certifications.
