  • Abstract
    This paper presents the use of overlay networks as a tool to confront the consequences of extreme network attacks. In particular, it suggests the use of disaster recovery sites, which are becoming a common practice of all major IT infrastructures. The main goals of this attempt are to enable IT infrastructures to deal with severe network attacks such as denial of service and distributed denial of service attacks as well as insider attacks
