Real-time detection of distributed denial-of-service attacks using RBF networks and statistical features

چکیده
In this paper we present and evaluate a Radial-basis-function neural network detector for Distributed-Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks in public networks based on statistical features estimated in short-time window analysis of the incoming data packets. A small number of statistical descriptors were used to describe the DDoS attacks behaviour, and an accurate classification is achieved using the Radial-basis-function neural networks (RBF-NN). The proposed method is evaluated in a simulated public network and showed detection rate better than 98% of DDoS attacks using only three statistical features estimated from one window of data packets of 6 s length. The same type of experiments were carried out on a real network giving significantly better results: a 100% DDoS detection rate is achieved followed by a 0% of false alarm rate using different statistical descriptors and training conditions for the RBF-NN. 2004 Elsevier B.V.

HF-Blocker: Detection of Distributed Denial of Service Attacks Based On Botnets
Abstract—Today, botnets have become a serious threat to enterprise networks. By creation of network of bots, they launch several attacks, distributed denial of service attacks (DDoS) on networks is a sample of such attacks. Such attacks with the occupation of system resources, have proven to be an effective method of denying network services. Botnets that launch HTTP packet flood attacks agains...

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) is a common attack in recent years that can deplete the bandwidth of victim nodes by flooding packets. Based on the type and quantity of traffic used for the attack and the exploited vulnerability of the target, DDoS attacks are grouped into three categories as Volumetric attacks, Protocol attacks and Application attacks. The volumetric attack, which the pro...
متن کاملIntrusion Detection in IOT based Networks Using Double Discriminant Analysis
Intrusion detection is one of the main challenges in wireless systems especially in Internet of things (IOT) based networks. There are various attack types such as probe, denial of service, remote to local and user to root. In addition to known attacks and malicious behaviors, there are various unknown attacks that some of them have similar behavior with respect to each other or mimic the norma...
متن کاملNeural Network Based Protection of Software Defined Network Controller against Distributed Denial of Service Attacks
Software Defined Network (SDN) is a new architecture for network management and its main concept is centralizing network management in the network control level that has an overview of the network and determines the forwarding rules for switches and routers (the data level). Although this centralized control is the main advantage of SDN, it is also a single point of failure. If this main contro...
متن کاملMoving dispersion method for statistical anomaly detection in intrusion detection systems
A unified method for statistical anomaly detection in intrusion detection systems is theoretically introduced. It is based on estimating a dispersion measure of numerical or symbolic data on successive moving windows in time and finding the times when a relative change of the dispersion measure is significant. Appropriate dispersion measures, relative differences, moving windows, as well as tec...
