Abstract
Disclosed is a method of preventing a denial of service (DoS) attack using transmission control protocol (TCP) state transition. Flow of packets transmitted between a client and a server using TCP is monitored to prevent the DoS attack, e.g., SYN flooding, and to efficiently reduce the load on the server and provide more secure service. By applying the method to a firewall, a proxy server, an intrusion detection system, etc., of a server, it is possible to make up for vulnerabilities regarding a DoS attack without disturbing a conventional TCP state transition operation and detect, verify and block DoS attacks abusing the vulnerabilities, thereby providing more secure service.
