Samir Al-Sheikh, Matthias Wählisch, Thomas C. Schmidt · 2015

Interest flooding has been identified as a major threat for the NDN infrastructure. Since then several approaches have been proposed to identify and to mitigate this attack.

We discuss the application of pure prefix-based as well as pure interface-based mitigation strategies in different network scenarios.
