Two primary means for networking applications


Potential Networking Threats
Denial of Service (DoS) attacks
• A large number of remote hosts are used to attack a target site so that the target is unable to service valid requests.
DNS Rebinding attacks
•Use DNS to force a remote host to rebind a trusted host name (site of origin) to a victim’s IP address, thus allowing access to a host other than site of origin.
Reverse tunnel attack
•Use a remote client’s outgoing connection as a back tunnel to the client’s private network.
