  Abstract

A serious problem to fight attacks through network is that attackers use incorrect or spoofed IP addresses in attack packets. Due to the stateless nature of the internet structure, it is a difficult problem to determine the source of these spoofed IP packets. While many IP traceback techniques have been proposed, they all have shortcomings that limit their usability in practice. In this paper we propose new IP marking techniques to solve the IP traceback problem. We have measured the performance of this mechanism and at the same time meeting the efficient marking for traceback and low system overhead.
