A Design of Flexible Testbed for Network Security Evaluation
Yi-Jin Im, Hyoung-Kee Choi, Kiyoon Kim · 2010
We present a testbed for collecting log information and evaluating network security under various attacks. This testbed is modeled on real Internet, where attack traffic coexists with normal traffic. Attacks can be produced either by attack tools directly or by data sets including attack traffic. It costs less time and money than existing ones which are both costly and often time consuming in constructing. Also, it can be easily revised or extended according to the traffic types or the uses. Therefore, using our testbed can make various tests more efficient and facilitate collecting log information of sensors with attacks. We discuss how to use our testbed through replay procedures of DDoS attack and worm. We also discuss how we surmount some difficulty in constructing the testbed.
