Evaluate the Vulnerabilities of Existing Protocols to Routing Layer Resource Depletion Attacks
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Computer and Communication Technology - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 11
Abstract
We describe a Resource Depletion attack as the work of art and transmission of a message that causes more energy to be consumed by the network than if an honest node transmitted a message of identical size to the same destination though using different packet headers. These are also called Vampire attacks. We calculate the strength of the attack by the ratio of network energy used in the benevolent case to the energy used in the malicious case i.e. the ratio of network-wide power utilization with malevolent nodes present to energy convention with only honest nodes when the number and size of packets sent remains invariable. Security from Vampire attacks entails that this ratio is 1. Energy use by malicious nodes is not measured since they can always unilaterally sewer their own batteries. We present a sequence of increasingly damaging Vampire attacks estimate the vulnerability of several example protocols and propose how to improve elasticity. In source routing protocols we show how a malicious packet source can indicate paths through the network which are far longer than optimal wasting energy at middle nodes who forward the packet based on the included source route.
