Abstract

Implementing DASH, the most popular method for multimedia streaming, over NDN, a potential future Internet architecture, can substantially increase the network bandwidth utilization. However, inherent features of NDN can create new security risks for adaptive multimedia streaming. We propose a novel attack called Bitrate Oscillation Attack (BOA), which adversely exploits NDN's autonomous on-path caching and interest aggregation to unsettle DASH functionality. BOA forces the resolution and quality of video received by the attacked client to oscillate with high frequency and amplitude. Subsequently, we present CoMon-DAS, a framework for lightweight coordination that mitigates BOA and other attacks in NDN. Through extensive simulations, we demonstrate that BOA is very harmful for DAS over NDN, but can be significantly mitigated by CoMon-DAS.
