Query: HEAP: Reliable Assessment of BGP Hijacking Attacks   The detection of BGP prefix hijacking attacks has been the focus of research
for more than a decade. However, state-of-the-art techniques fall short of
detecting more elaborate types of attack. To study such attacks, we devise a
novel formalization of Internet routing, and apply this model to routing
anomalies in order to establish a comprehensive attacker model. We use this
model to precisely classify attacks and to evaluate their impact and
detectability. We analyze the eligibility of attack tactics that suit an
attacker's goals and demonstrate that related work mostly focuses on less
impactful kinds of attacks.
  We further propose, implement and test the Hijacking Event Analysis Program
(HEAP), a new approach to investigate hijacking alarms. Our approachis designed
to seamlessly integrate with previous work in order to reduce the high rates of
false alarms inherent to these techniques. We leverage several unique data
sources that can reliably disprove malicious intent. First, we make use of an
Internet Routing Registry to derive business or organisational relationships
between the parties involved in an event. Second, we use a topology-based
reasoning algorithm to rule out events caused by legitimate operational
practice. Finally, we use Internet-wide network scans to identify
SSL/TLS-enabled hosts, which helps to identify non-malicious events by
comparing public keys prior to and during an event. In our evaluation, we prove
the effectiveness of our approach, and show that day-to-day routing anomalies
are harmless for the most part. More importantly, we use HEAP to assess the
validity of publicly reported alarms. We invite researchers to interface with
HEAP in order to cross-check and narrow down their hijacking alerts.
