Abstract
A computing system and related method protect a computer network connection manager's resources from attempted resource attacks by extracting SrcIP and TTL values from received data packet headers. Extracted SrcIP and TTL values are analyzed to determine the probability that a received data packet is malicious. If the probability exceeds a specified threshold, resources are denied, and the packet is dropped. If the specified threshold is not exceeded, resources are allocated to the received data packet. The SrcIP reputation score, TTL value frequency, SrcIP frequency, SrcIP geo-location, and resource occupancy may all be used in computing the probability of a malicious data packet. These factors may be weighted and summed to calculate the probability of a malicious data packet.
