In the last years, Denial of Service (DoS) attacks have been widely spreaded becoming a more than ever relevant threat to network security.
DoS attacks evolved from flood to low bandwidth rate based, making a host unreachable through the usage of a small amount of bandwidth and eluding an Intrusion Detection System more easily.
In this paper, we analyze the most common slow Denial of Service attacks to web applications, proposing a taxonomy to categorize such attacks. The proposal of our work is to make an overview and to classify slow DoS attacks for a better understanding of their action strategy, thus helping developers and network administrators to design proper defense methodologies.
