Discouraging Traffic Remapping Attacks in Local Ad Hoc Networks
PublicationQuality of Service (QoS) is usually provided in ad hoc networks using a class-based approach which, without dedicated security measures in place, paves the way to various abuses by selfish stations. Such actions include traffic remapping attacks (TRAs), which consist in claiming a higher traffic priority, i.e., false designation of the intrinsic traffic class so that it can be mapped onto a higher-priority class. In practice, TRAs...

Rozproszone systemy teleinformatyczne: inteligencja, autonomia, racjonalność i bezpieczeństwo kooperacji
PublicationWzrostowi inteligencji i autonomii podmiotów komunikacji systemów teleinformatycznych towarzyszy rozszerzanie paradygmatu analizy i projektowania w stronę podmiotów indywidualnie racjonalnych (egoistycznych). Wymaga to zastosowania metod teorii gier niekooperatywnych. W referacie pokazano przykłady zachowań egoistycznych określonych jako "wymuszanie pierwszeństwa" i "fałszywe tablice" odpowiednio w środowisku wireless multihoming...

Traffic Remapping Attacks in Ad Hoc Networks
PublicationAd hoc networks rely on the mutual cooperation of stations. As such, they are susceptible to selfish attacks that abuse network mechanisms. Class-based QoS provisioning mechanisms, such as the EDCA function of IEEE 802.11, are particularly prone to traffic remapping attacks, which may bring an attacker better QoS without exposing it to easy detection. Such attacks have been studied in wireless LANs, whereas their impact in multihop...

Modulo N Backoff Scheme for effective QoS differentiation and increased bandwidth utilization in IEEE 802.11 networks
PublicationThe paper presents a new "modulo N" channel access scheme for wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). The novel solution derives from the Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) of the IEEE 802.11 standard, further elaborated as Enhanced Distribution Channel Access (EDCA) by the 802.11e draft specification. The main innovation concerns improvement of the binary exponential backoff scheme used for collision avoidance in 802.11 networks....

Efekty egoistycznych ataków na poziomie mac w sieciach ad hoc o topologii wieloskokowej
PublicationStacje sieci ad hoc mogą manipulować parametrami dostępu do medium transmisyjnego dla osiągnięcia nienależnie wysokiej jakości usług. Dla środowiska sieci ad hoc o topologii wieloskokowej rozważane są ataki na mechanizmy odłożenia transmisji i klasyfikacji ruchu, przeprowadzane zarówno w stosunku do przepływów źródłowych jak i tranzytowych. Wyniki pozwalają wstępnie ocenić efekty takich ataków oraz skuteczność mechanizmów obronnych.

Credibility of Threats to Jam Anonymous Traffic Remapping Attacks in Ad Hoc WLANs
PublicationIn ad hoc networks, selfish stations can pursue a better quality of service (QoS) by performing traffic remapping attacks (TRAs), i.e., by falsely assigning their traffic to a higher priority class, which can hurt honest stations’ QoS. To discourage the attackers, honest stations can announce their dissatisfaction with the perceived QoS. If such a threat fails, a costly data frame jamming defense can be launched. We analyze the...
