چکیده
Cloud computing has started to gain acceptance for adoption and implementation among organizations, however, this new technology area has already started to deal with security, performance and availability challenges. Within Cloud Security issues being paramount for the corporates, private enterprises, the denial of service attacks are rated as the highest priority threat to the cloud environments. This study presents a review on the academic literature research work on the DDoS attack on Cloud, introduces a new DDoS Classification taxonomy and proposes parameters for determining an effective DDoS solution. Keywords–Cloud Computing; Cloud Security; ICMP Flood; DoS; DDoS; Distributed Denial of Service

DDoS Attacks in Cloud Computing: Issues, Taxonomy, and Future Directions
Security issues related to the cloud computing are relevant to various stakeholders for an informed cloud adoption decision. Apart from data breaches, the cyber security research community is revisiting the attack space for cloud-specific solutions as these issues affect budget, resource management, and service quality. Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is one such serious attack in t...
متن کاملDistributed Denial of Service:
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks have become a large problem for users of computer systems connected to the Internet. DDoS attackers hijack secondary victim systems using them to wage a coordinated large-scale attack against primary victim systems. As new countermeasures are developed to prevent or mitigate DDoS attacks, attackers are constantly developing new methods to circumvent ...
متن کاملA Survey on Solutions to Distributed Denial of Service Attacks
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is a large-scale, coordinated attack on the availability of services of a victim system or network resource, launched indirectly through many compromised computers on the Internet. Researchers have come up with more and more specific solutions to the DDoS problem. However, existing DDoS attack tools keep being improved and new attack techniques are de...

متن کاملMulti-domain DDoS Mitigation Based on Blockchains
The exponential increase of the traffic volume makes Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks a top security threat to service providers. Existing DDoS defense mechanisms lack resources and flexibility to cope with attacks by themselves, and by utilizing other’s companies resources, the burden of the mitigation can be shared. Technologies as blockchain and smart contracts allow distributing...
