Abstract
A traceback solution is provided. For a network of autonomous systems, the traceback solution traces the autonomous system path taken by traffic flows. Every link in the traceback path is created, verified, and audited by autonomous systems. Multiple autonomous systems may take part in the process, making the system robust against fake information. The database used to store the validated traceback paths is a decentralized and distributed storage. Multiple copies of the database may be maintained by the network of autonomous systems. The database may be accessible by any participating autonomous system; and is not accessible from outside the network of autonomous systems. The traceback solution achieves both validation and non-repudiation property among the ASes. The traceback solution mitigates some important attack scenarios that might be targeted specifically at the traceback solution.
