Co Hijacking Monitor: Collaborative Detecting and Locating Mechanism for HTTP Spectral Hijacking
This addresses HTTP hijacking issues in mobile internet applications, but appears incremental as it builds on existing detection approaches.
The paper tackles HTTP spectral hijacking, which causes problems for users, network operators, and ISPs, by proposing Co HijackingMonitor, a collaborative detecting and locating mechanism that effectively solves the hijacking problem according to experimental results.
With the rapid growth of mobile internet, mobile application, like website navigation, searching, e-Shopping and app download, etc. are all popular in worldwide. Meanwhile, it become more and more popular that traditional HTTP protocol, which is also applying in not only web browsing but also communication between mobile application clients and servers. Besides, it has made HTTP Hijacking profitable. Furthermore, it has brought a lot of troubles for users, network operators and ISP. We analyze the principle of HTTP spectral Hijacking and present a mechanism of collaboratively detecting and locating called Co HijackingMonitor. Experimental result shows that, Co HijackingMonitor can solve the hijacking problem effectively.
