In most network security analysis, researchers mainly focus on qualitative studies on security schemes and possible attacks, and there are few papers on quantitative analysis in the current literature. This paper proposes one queueing model for the evaluation of the Denial of Service (DoS) attacks in computer networks. The network under DoS attacks is characterized by a two-dimensional embedded Markov chain model. With this model, the paper can develop a memory-efficient algorithm for finding the stationary probability distribution which can be used to find other interesting performance metrics such as the connection loss probability and buffer occupancy percentages of half-open connections for regular traffic and attack traffic.
