Spoofing Attack and Surveillance Game in Geo-location Database Driven Spectrum Sharing
Résumé
The geo-location database (GDB) driven is the enforcement method for dynamic spectrum sharing in TV White Space
and 3.5 GHz spectrum bands, as well as a preferred option for the other spectrum sharing applications. Although providing accurate
and reliable spectrum information services, the GDB driven spectrum sharing suffers from a critical security threat of spoofing
attack. Under a spoofing attack, an adversary could spoof either the identification (ID) or the location information in its request
messages. This breaks the fairness and reduces the efficiency of the GDB driven spectrum sharing system. In order to counteract
the location and ID spoofing attacks, we consider the location verification of request messages and the ID verification of
communicating data. Because a resource manager and an adversary are independent and self-interested, we formulate two corresponding
surveillance games to analyze the conflict interaction between spoofing attack and the countermeasures. By expressing
the surveillance game on requests’ location in a strategic form and representing the surveillance game on data ID in a sequence
form, we find out Nash equilibrium. The analytical and numerical results show that a resource manager can mitigate the spoofing
attack by adequately adapting its penalty policy and surveillance strategy.
