Abstract Intrusion Detection System (IDS) in the cloud Computing (CC) environment has received paramount interest over the last few years. Among the latest approaches, Deep Learning (DL)-based IDS methods allow the discovery of attacks with the highest performance. In the CC environment, Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are widespread. The cloud services will be rendered unavailable to legitimate end-users as a consequence of the overwhelming network traffic, resulting in financial losses. Although various researchers have proposed many detection techniques, there are possible obstacles in terms of detection performance due to the use of insignificant traffic features. Therefore, in this paper,… More >

Abstract The recent development of cloud computing offers various services on demand for organization and individual users, such as storage, shared computing space, networking, etc. Although Cloud Computing provides various advantages for users, it remains vulnerable to many types of attacks that attract cyber criminals. Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) is the most common type of attack on cloud computing. Consequently, Cloud computing professionals and security experts have focused on the growth of preventive processes towards DDoS attacks. Since DDoS attacks have become increasingly widespread, it becomes difficult for some DDoS attack methods based on individual network flow features to distinguish… More >

Abstract Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks are designed to interrupt network services such as email servers and webpages in traditional computer networks. Furthermore, the enormous number of connected devices makes it difficult to operate such a network effectively. Software defined networks (SDN) are networks that are managed through a centralized control system, according to researchers. This controller is the brain of any SDN, composing the forwarding table of all data plane network switches. Despite the advantages of SDN controllers, DDoS attacks are easier to perpetrate than on traditional networks. Because the controller is a single point of failure, if it fails, the… More >

Abstract The advent of the latest technologies like the Internet of things (IoT) transforms the world from a manual to an automated way of lifestyle. Meanwhile, IoT sector open numerous security challenges. In traditional networks, intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPS) have been the key player in the market to ensure security. The challenges to the conventional IDPS are implementation cost, computing power, processing delay, and scalability. Further, online machine learning model training has been an issue. All these challenges still question the IoT network security. There has been a lot of research for IoT based detection systems to secure the… More >

Abstract Cloud computing (CC) is an advanced technology that provides access to predictive resources and data sharing. The cloud environment represents the right type regarding cloud usage model ownership, size, and rights to access. It introduces the scope and nature of cloud computing. In recent times, all processes are fed into the system for which consumer data and cache size are required. One of the most security issues in the cloud environment is Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, responsible for cloud server overloading. This proposed system ID3 (Iterative Dichotomiser 3) Maximum Multifactor Dimensionality Posteriori Method (ID3-MMDP) is used to overcome… More >

Abstract

Cloud computing is the technology that is currently used to provide users with infrastructure, platform, and software services effectively. Under this system, Platform as a Service (PaaS) offers a medium headed for a web development platform that uniformly distributes the requests and resources. Hackers using Denial of service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks abruptly interrupt these requests. Even though several existing methods like signature-based, statistical anomaly-based, and stateful protocol analysis are available, they are not sufficient enough to get rid of Denial of service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks and hence there is a… More >

Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) is a global information and communication technology which aims to connect any type of device to the internet at any time and in any location. Nowadays billions of IoT devices are connected to the world, this leads to easily cause vulnerability to IoT devices. The increasing of users in different IoT-related applications leads to more data attacks is happening in the IoT networks after the fog layer.

Abstract The emergence of a new network architecture, known as Software Defined Networking (SDN), in the last two decades has overcome some drawbacks of traditional networks in terms of performance, scalability, reliability, security, and network management. However, the SDN is vulnerable to security threats that target its controller, such as low-rate Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, The low-rate DDoS attack is one of the most prevalent attacks that poses a severe threat to SDN network security because the controller is a vital architecture component. Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a detection approach for this type of attack… More >

Abstract With the advancement of internet, there is also a rise in cybercrimes and digital attacks. DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack is the most dominant weapon to breach the vulnerabilities of internet and pose a significant threat in the digital environment. These cyber-attacks are generated deliberately and consciously by the hacker to overwhelm the target with heavy traffic that genuine users are unable to use the target resources. As a result, targeted services are inaccessible by the legitimate user. To prevent these attacks, researchers are making use of advanced Machine Learning classifiers which can accurately detect the DDoS attacks. However,… More >

Abstract Software-defined network (SDN) is an enabling technology that meets the demand of dynamic, adaptable, and manageable networking architecture for the future. In contrast to the traditional networks that are based on a distributed control plane, the control plane of SDN is based on a centralized architecture. As a result, SDNs are susceptible to critical cyber attacks that exploit the single point of failure. A distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack is one of the most crucial and risky attacks, targeting the SDN controller and disrupting its services. Several researchers have proposed signature-based DDoS mitigation and detection techniques that rely on… More >
