ABSTRACT
Engineering Issues for an Adaptive Defense Network (ADN) examines the ability of network systems to change behavior dynamically to sustain service in response to attacks. In order to focus the research problem, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks were used as the threat. The primary issue was the capability to detect and defend against DDoS. Experimentation was performed with a packet filtering firewall, a network Quality of Service manager, multiple DDoS tools, and traffic generation tools. Related efforts, recommendations and experiments are covered in this paper.
