Network signaling and control mechanisms are critical to coordinate such diverse defense capabilities as honeypots and honeynets, host-based defenses, and online patching systems, any one of which might issue an actionable alert and provide security-critical data. Despite considerable work in exploring the trust requirements of such defenses and in addressing the distribution speed of alerts, little work has gone into identifying how the underlying transport systems behave under adversarial scenarios. In this paper, we evaluate the reliability and performance trade-offs for a variety of control channel mechanisms that are suitable for coordinating large-scale collaborative defenses when under attack. Our results show that the performance and reliability characteristics change drastically when one evaluates the systems under attack by a sophisticated and targeted adversary. Based on our evaluation, we explore available design choices to reinforce the reliability of the control channel mechanisms. To that end, we propose ways to construct a control scheme to improve network coverage without imposing additional overhead.
