Detection and Mitigation of Http Get-flooding Attack

144 Abstract—With significant growth in Internet, many day-to-day life activities such as shopping, banking transactions, commerce and Learning, etc. are simplified and made possible with the help of web applications. To protect the user’s confidential information, many security mechanisms are developed using machine learning algorithms. For the past ten years, Application Layer DDoS attack is found to have greater impact on web applications, as it tries to Exhaust the server resource, which leads to service disruption to the legitimate users. DDoS attack requests are mimicks the user request of normal Web application. SVM Provides the efficient and accurate result for the detection and mitigation of Application Layer DDoS Attack.
