Zu den ATHENE Distinguished Lectures sind etablierte nationale und internationale Cybersecurity-Expert*innen gelade, die Einblicke in ihre neuesten Foschungsergebnisse geben.
Die Lectures finden meist hybrid (vor Ort am Fraunhofer SIT in Darmstadt) statt, so dass auch die Möglichkeit besteht, sich nach dem Vortrag bei leckeren Snacks und Getränken persönlich mit den wichtigsten Akteuren der Cybersicherheit zu treffen und auszutauschen. Die Vortragssprache ist Englisch.
Die ATHENE Lecture Series werden organisiert von Prof. Haya Shulman, ATHENE | Goethe-Universität Frankfurt | Fraunhofer SIT.
Am 22.06. spricht Anat Bremler-Barr von der Blavatnik School of Computer Science, Tel-Aviv University
Vortrag: Cloud Auto-scaling Mechanisms Under DDoS Attacks: Yo-Yo Attack and Tandem Attack
Abstract:
It is a common belief that Auto-scaling mechanisms serve as a mitigation for Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on cloud computing infrastructures by dynamically adding machines to cope with the additional load. Intuitively, such attacks are mostly associated with Economic Denial of Sustainability (EDoS) derived from paying for the extra resources required to process the malicious incoming traffic.
Contrary to this belief, we present and analyze the Yo-Yo attack, a new attack against the auto-scaling mechanism that can cause significant performance degradation in addition to economic damage. We demonstrate the attack on Amazon EC2, Kubernetes, and serverless architecture. We then present and analyze Tandem Attack, a new attack on Microservices architecture. In this attack, the attacker exploits the tandem behavior of services with different auto-scaling mechanisms, causing both economic and performance damage.

ATHENE Lecture Series You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
