Low Traffic

The proliferation of low security internet of things devices has widened the range of weapons that malevolent users can utilize in order to attack legitimate services in new ways. In the recent years, apart from very large volumetric distributed denial of service attacks, low and slow attacks initiated from intelligent bot networks have been detected to target multiple hosts in a network in a timely fashion. However, even if the attacks seem to be “innocent” at the beginning, they generate huge traffic in the network without practically been detected by the traditional DDoS attack detection methods. In this chapter, an advanced pattern detection method is presented that is able to collect and classify in real time all the incoming traffic and detect a developing slow and low DDoS attack by monitoring the traffic in all the hosts of the network. The experimental analysis on a real dataset provides useful insights about the effectiveness of the method by identifying not only the main source of attack but also secondary sources that produce low traffic, targeting though multiple hosts.

Ddos Attack Detection

<p>High and low-intensity attacks are two common Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks that disrupt Internet users and their daily operations. Detecting these attacks is important to ensure that communication, business operations, and education facilities can run smoothly. Many DDoS attack detection systems have been proposed in the past but still lack performance, scalability, and information sharing ability to detect both high and low-intensity DDoS attacks accurately and early. To combat these issues, this thesis studies the use of Software-Defined Networking technology, entropy-based features, and machine learning classifiers to develop three useful components, namely a good system architecture, a useful set of features, and an accurate and generalised traffic classification scheme. The findings from the experimental analysis and evaluation results of the three components provide important insights for researchers to improve the overall performance, scalability, and information sharing ability for building an accurate and early DDoS attack detection system.</p>

Ddos Attack Detection

This research proposed a new method to enhance Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) detection attack on Software Defined Network (SDN) environment. This research utilized the OpenFlow controller of SDN for DDoS attack detection using modified method and regarding entropy value. The new method would check whether the traffic was a normal traffic or DDoS attack by measuring the randomness of the packets. This method consisted of two steps, detecting attack and checking the entropy. The result shows that the new method can reduce false positive when there is a temporary and sudden increase in normal traffic. The new method succeeds in not detecting this as a DDoS attack. Compared to previous methods, this proposed method can enhance DDoS attack detection on SDN environment.

F Measure

A most common attack on the internet network is a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack, which involves occupying computational resources and bandwidth to suppress services to potential clients. The attack scenario is to massively flood the packets. The attack is called a denial of service (DoS) if the attack originates from a single server, and a distributed denial of service (DDoS) if the attack originates from multiple servers. Control and mitigation of DDoS attacks have been a research goal for many scholars for over a decade, and they have achieved in delivering a few major DDoS detection and protection techniques. In the current state of internet use, how quickly and early a DDoS attack can be detected in broadcasting network transactions remains a key research goal. After the development of a machine learning algorithm, many potential methods of DDoS attack detection have been developed. The work presents the results of various experiments carried out using data mining and machine learning algorithms as well as a combination of these algorithms on the commonly available dataset named CAIDA for TCP SYN flood attack detection. Also, this work analysis the various performance metrics such as false positive rate, precision, recall, F-measure and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) using various machine learning algorithm. One-R(OR) with an ideal FPR value of 0.05 and recall value of 0.95,decision stump(DS) with an ideal precision value of o.93,PART with an excellent F-measure value of 0.91 are some of the performance metric values while performing TCP SYN flood attack detection.
