Formal Analysis of an Authentication Protocol Against External Cloud-Based Denial-of-Service (DoS) Attack. |
Abstract | ||
---|---|---|
The Denial-of-service (DoS) attack is considered one of the largest threats to the availability of cloudcomputing services. Due to the unique architecture of cloud-computing systems, the methods for detecting and preventing DoS attacks are quite different from those used in traditional network systems. A main target for DoS attackers is the authentication protocol because it is considered a gateway to accessing a cloud’s resources. In this work, we propose a cloud-based authentication protocol—one that securely authenticates the cloud’s user and effectively prevents DoS attack on the cloudcomputing system—by involving the user in a high computation process. Then, we analyze the protocol via Syverson and Van Oorschot (SVO) logic to verify the authentication process of the protocol in a cloudcomputing system. |
