Analyzing the Benefits of Optical Topology Programming for Mitigating Link-Flood DDoS Attacks

Link-flood attacks (LFAs) overwhelm bandwidth on links in a network using traffic from many sources, which is indistinguishable from benign traffic. Unfortunately, traditional DDoS defenses are incapable of stopping such attacks and recently proposed software-defined solutions are ineffective. In th...
