Another big news. Our paper titled “A Robust Counting Sketch for Data Plane Intrusion Detection”, proposing Count-Less, is accepted in NDSS 2023! This paper is part of the series of works that our group has been pursuing on data sketch for traffic measurement and security applications. Count-Less is a major variation of the famous Count-Min sketch, but is more robust in terms of measurement accuracy under a various traffic distributions, including attack traffic. The design of the sketch is lightweight enough to fit in the packet processing pipeline and sketch’s performance is shown to be superior to state-of-the-art algorithms, such as Elastic sketch and FCM by comprehensive experiments.

Congratulations to Sian, Changhun, Rhongho, David, and me!
