Research on low-rate DDoS attack of SDN network in cloud environment by Xingshu CHEN, Qiang HUA, Yitong WANG, Long GE, Yi ZHU

“…Aiming at the problems of low-rate DDoS attack detection accuracy in cloud SDN network and the lack of unified framework for data plane and control plane low-rate DDoS attack detection and defense,a unified framework for low-rate DDoS attack detection was proposed.First of all,the validity of the data plane DDoS attacks in low rate was analyzed,on the basis of combining with low-rate of DDoS attacks in the aspect of communications,frequency characteristics,extract the mean value,maximum value,deviation degree and average deviation,survival time of ten dimensions characteristics of five aspects,to achieve the low-rate of DDoS attack detection based on bayesian networks,issued by the controller after the relevant strategies to block the attack flow.Finally,in OpenStack cloud environment,the detection rate of low-rate DDoS attack reaches 99.3% and the CPU occupation rate is 9.04%.It can effectively detect and defend low-rate DDoS attacks.…”

Risk factors of dialysis-related amyloidosis in maintenance hemodialysis patients by WANG Xiao-guang, CHEN Hong, ZHENG Jian-qin, SHI Ling-bo, FU Jun-feng

“…Objective To analyze the correlation between advanced glycosylation end products(AGE),free radical metabolism and dialysis-related amyloidosis(DRA) in the maintenance hemodialysis patients.Methods Serum AGE and Nercarboxymethyllysine(CML) in 46 cases of DRA diagnosed by shoulder R-ultrasound were tested.Superoxide dismutase(SOD),lipid peroxide(LPO),β2-microglobulin(β2-MG) and C-reactive protein(CRP) were detected.Results In DRA patients,AGE,CML,LPO,β2-MG and CRP levels were significantly increased,and SOD levels were significantly reduced as compared with control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).With the prolonged duration of dialysis,EP-positive rate was significantly increased,and DRA aggravated.The AGE,CML,LPO,(32-MG and CRP levels were increased,and SOD levels reduced more significantly in the longterm dialysis group than the short-term dialysis group(P<0.05).Dialysis age was positively correlated with shoulder amyloidosis degree and levels of AGE,CML,LPO,β2-MG and CRP,but negatively with SOD levels(P<0.05 for all).The increases of AGE,(32-MG and CRP in maintenance hemodialysis may be the material basis of DRA early lesions.The enhanced oxidative stress and chronic inflammation may be involved in the formation process of the early DRA.Conclusions Preventing or delaying the development of DRA should reduce the circulating β2-MG levels and inhibit the joint inflammatioa Inhibiting the AGE decoration of β2-MC,clearing AGE decorative protein or blocking the interaction between AGE-β2-MG and cell surface receptor may be the way to prevent DRA or delay the development of DRA.…”
