GNN4IFA: Interest Flooding Attack Detection With Graph Neural Networks

In the context of Information-Centric Networking, Interest Flooding Attacks (IFAs) represent a new and dangerous sort of distributed denial of service. Since existing proposals targeting IFAs mainly focus on local information, in this paper we propose GNN4IFA as the first mechanism exploiting complex non-local knowledge for IFA detection by...

Software defined network-based HTTP flooding attack defender

In recent years, the explosive growth of the Internet has led to an increment in the number of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. HTTP Flooding is a critical DDoS attack that targets HTTP servers to prohibit users from receiving HTTP services. Moreover, it saturates the link bandwidth and consumes network resources. Because the...

HTTPScout: A Machine Learning based Countermeasure for HTTP Flood Attacks in SDN

Nowadays, the number of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks is growing rapidly. The aim of these type of attacks is to make the prominent and critical services unavailable for legitimate users. HTTP flooding is one of the most common DDoS attacks and because of its implementation in application layer, it is difficult to detect and...
