T1: Infrastructure Attack Detection and Mitigation Methodologies

Monday, August 22, 2005, morning

Intended audience: Security and network engineers, as well as researchers who want to understand attack detection and mitigation methodologies employed by Internet network operators and large enterprises today. Attendees will be introduced to a six phased incident response methodology derived from the collective best practices of the Internet community. This tutorial helps bridge the gap between the theoretical foundations of network security and the real-world practical limitations network providers face. Basic familiarity with IP routing and routed protocols and Internet architecture is assumed, though not required.
