Distributed Black Box and Graveyards Defense Strategies against Distributed Denial of Services

A Distributed Denial of Service attack (DDoS) is one the most dangerous attacks that can be initiated on computer systems that targets their availability. No defense technique was suggested until now to be called an absolute defense that stands against all types of DDoS attacks. In this paper, we suggest two strategies of defense mechanisms that will enhance the efficiency of compacting against DDoS; the Distributed black box/packet Reflector that uses the packet reflecting technique and the Graveyard that drops malicious packets at least after doing several levels of testing on them.
