1 ABSTRACT Practical Study of the Defence Against Low-Rate
- It has been shown in theory and through simulations [1, 2] that a low-rate TCP-targeted Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack is possible by exploiting the retransmition timeout (RTO) mechanism of TCP. Relative to most kinds of DoS attacks, this exploit requires periodic taffic, of low average volume in or

Make least privilege a right (not a privilege
- Though system security would benefit if programmers routinely followed the principle of least privilege [24], the interfaces exposed by operating systems often stand in the way. We investigate why modern OSes thwart secure programming practices and propose solutions. 1

Labels and event processes in the asbestos operating system
- Asbestos, a new prototype operating system, provides novel labeling and isolation mechanisms that help contain the effects of exploitable software flaws. Applications can express a wide range of policies with Asbestos’s kernel-enforced label mechanism, including controls on inter-process communicati
