Description

To meet the need for enhanced defense against distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS), Grier Forensics proposes developing SPAIN: Single Packet Abuse Interdiction Network. SPAIN amplifies the effectiveness and power of DDoS defenses, reversing the current asymmetry to instead favor the defender. Instead of the passive, isolated, single point defense in use today, SPAIN creates an active, distributed, network wide DDoS defense network. SPAIN is a simple, secure, resource minimal, autonomous and self-regulating system, built on top of existing Internet infrastructure, capable of being integrated into existing networks and devices.
