O r, je ne peux m'empêcher de co nstater que la li gne d'arrivée es t pratiquement franchi e et que le bébé, le mémoire bref, au fin al, je l'aime bien et n'en suis pas peu fi er no n pl us! Il es t vrai toutefois que le processus de rédac ti on a été ex igeant et éprouva nt par endroits et que, sans l'appui de certaines personnes cl és, le document que vo us avez entre les mains n'aurait probabl ement jamais vu le jour. Premièrement, j'aim erais offrir toute ma reconnaissa nce à ma douce N ancy, qui est entrée dans ma vie en même tem ps que le processus de rédacti on du mémoire débutait lui-mêm e. Merci d'être entré dans ma vie, darlin, et merci auss i de to n appui précieux qui, surtout au cours des derniers mois, m'a permis de garder le cap co ntre vents et marées. Prépare-toi, chère, parce qu'il y aura déso rmais un deuxième « maître » dans la maison à partir de m ain tenant! J'aimerais auss i offrir ma gratitude à mon père François qui m'a appuyé et a cru en moi depuis aussi longtemps que je puisse me rappeler. T on appui, autant moral, qu'affectif ou fin ancier, a eu un impact primordial dans ma vie et m'a permis de récupérer d'erreurs et d 'égarements passagers que, vu avec un peu de recul, j'aurais difficilement pu év iter. Merci pour ro n appui et pourron amour durant toutes ces années, et gardes un spot sur le mur de ton bureau, j'ai un beau diplôme à te donner dans pas trop longtemps! Je pourrais auss i difficil ement passe r outre l'impact prépondérant qu'a eu ma directrice, Mme Michèle Ri oux, dans le dépôt du présent mémoire. C'est toi M ichèle qui m'a souvent incité à all er plus loin et à enrichir mon projet d'étude à un degré dont je ne me serais jamais même cru capable il y a quelques années à peine. J'admire ta créativité, j'admire ton go ût du risque et j'admire ta capacité de mobiliser les gens auto ur de projets stimulants et ambitieux et à performer au meilleur de leurs capacités. En tant qu'étudiant, j'ail eu a chance d'avoir non seulement eu un excell ent mentor académique, mais aussi un modèle précieux pour mon iii développement professionnel pour les années à ve nir.

It is a decentralized, hierarchical naming system that is responsible for translating the human-readable domain name to its associated IP address. The use of DNS thus eliminates the need for humans to remember the IP address of all their favorite websites (such as 172.217.6.68 an IPV4 address for google.com). Despite its widespread use, DNS is vulnerable to various security issues. This project focuses on replicating the basic functionality of the existing DNS on the blockchain and deploying it on a peer to peer network making it completely decentralized and, in the process, make it a bit more secure and reliable by addressing few of the security vulnerabilities of the existing system.

  • Identifier System Attack Mitigation Methodology DATE: 13 February 2017 Identifier System Attack Mitigation Methodology
    Identifier System Attack Mitigation Methodology DATE: 13 February 2017 Identifier System Attack Mitigation Methodology Introduction This document is part of ICANN’s effort to contribute to enhancing the Stability, Security, and Resiliency (SSR) of the Internet’s system of unique identifiers (“Internet Identifiers”) by working with the Community to identify and increase awareness of related attacks and to promote broader adoption of attack mitigation practices. This effort also addresses Recommendation #12 of the Security, Stability & Resiliency (SSR) Review Team (SSR-RT) by creating an Identifier System Attack Mitigation Methodology. Specifically, this document identifies and prioritizes types of attacks against the Identifier System, providing a stepping-off point for ICANN to coordinate with the Community to develop a series of short technical documents (“Tech Notes”) on actual high-impact attacks and emerging high-risk vulnerabilities. This document will be periodically updated to reflect evolution of both the Identifier System and the cybercrime landscape, supporting on-going efforts within both ICANN and the Community to mitigate attacks that pose the greatest risk to Identifier System SSR. Authors: Lisa Phifer and David Piscitello Page 1 Identifier System Attack Mitigation Methodology DATE: 13 February 2017 Attack Mitigation Methodology ICANN is proposing a new Identifier System Attack Mitigation Methodology to: • Identify, prioritize, and periodically refresh a list of top Identifier System attacks; • Develop guidance on actual high-impact attacks and emerging high-risk vulnerabilities; • Describe corresponding attack mitigation practices that are commonly considered useful; and • Encourage broader adoption of those practices via contracts, agreements, incentives, etc. This document represents the first component of this methodology.

    The Impact of DNSSEC on the Internet Landscape Von der Fakult¨atf¨urIngenieurwissenschaften, Abteilung Informatik und Angewandte Kognitionswissenschaft der Universit¨atDuisburg-Essen zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades Doktor der Ingenieurwissenschaften genehmigte Dissertation von Matth¨ausWander aus Lubin (L¨uben) Gutachter: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Torben Weis Prof. Dr.-Ing. Felix Freiling Tag der m¨undlichen Pr¨ufung:19. Juni 2015 Abstract In this dissertation we investigate the security deficiencies of the Domain Name System (DNS) and assess the impact of the DNSSEC security extensions. DNS spoofing attacks divert an application to the wrong server, but are also used routinely for blocking access to websites. We provide evidence for systematic DNS spoofing in China and Iran with measurement-based analyses, which allow us to examine the DNS spoofing filters from van- tage points outside of the affected networks. Third-parties in other countries can be affected inadvertently by spoofing-based domain filtering, which could be averted with DNSSEC. The security goals of DNSSEC are data integrity and authenticity. A point solution called NSEC3 adds a privacy assertion to DNSSEC, which is supposed to prevent disclosure of the domain namespace as a whole. We present GPU-based attacks on the NSEC3 privacy assertion, which allow efficient recovery of the namespace contents. We demonstrate with active measurements that DNSSEC has found wide adoption after initial hesitation. At server-side, there are more than five million domains signed with DNSSEC. A portion of them is insecure due to insufficient cryptographic key lengths or broken due to maintenance failures. At client-side, we have observed a worldwide increase of DNSSEC validation over the last three years, though not necessarily on the last mile.

  • Exploring the Threats of Decentalised DNS
    Unravelling Ariadne's Thread: Exploring the Threats of Decentalised DNS Constantinos Patsakis1,2, Fran Casino1, Nikolaos Lykousas1, and Vasilios Katos3 1University of Piraeus 2Athena Research Center 3Bournemouth University Abstract The current landscape of the core Internet technologies shows con- siderable centralisation with the big tech companies controlling the vast majority of traffic and services. This has sparked a wide range of de- centralisation initiatives with perhaps the most profound and successful being the blockchain technology. In the past years, a core Internet in- frastructure, domain name system (DNS), is being revised mainly due to its inherent security and privacy issues. One of the proposed panaceas is Blockchain-based DNS, which claims to solve many issues of traditional DNS. However, this does not come without security concerns and issues, as any introduction and adoption of a new technology does - let alone a disruptive one such as blockchain. In this work, we discuss a num- ber of associated threats, including emerging ones, and we validate many of them with real-world data. In this regard, we explore a part of the blockchain DNS ecosystem in terms of the browser extensions using such technologies, the chain itself (Namecoin and Emercoin), the domains, and users which have been registered in both platforms. Finally, we provide some countermeasures to address the identified threats, and we propose a fertile common ground for further research. arXiv:1912.03552v1 [cs.CR] 7 Dec 2019 Keywords: Malware, DNS, Blockchain, Blockchain Forensics, Cybercrime 1 Introduction One could argue that there is a periodic paradigm shift between centralisation and decentralisation in computer science.
