A curated list of DDoS papers, articles, tutorials and howtos.
The purpose of this list is to provide a starting point for understanding the state of the art in DDoS attack detection and mitigation. I started this list to keep track of the papers I read on these topics during my thesis on DDoS attack detection. I try to organize the list according to the main topics which are detection, mitigation and evolution of DDoS attacks. But also to group the papers in these sub-categories within these three categories previously stated. If you want to add a paper or an article that you think is relevant to the topic of this list, please read CONTRIBUTING.md.
- A DDoS attack detection mechanism based on protocol specific traffic features - Finding out the proper subset of features which can be used for DDoS detection.
- Jaqen: A High-Performance Switch-Native Approach for Detecting and Mitigating Volumetric DDoS Attacks with Programmable Switches - A switch-native approach for volumetric DDoS defense that can run detection and mitigation functions entirely inline on switches, without relying on additional data plane hardware.
- Classification of UDP Traffic for DDoS Detection - This paper presents a proportional-packet rate, and the use of this criterion to classify UDP traffic with the goal of detecting malicious addresses that launch flooding-based UDP DDoS attacks.
- DDoS attack prevention using collaborative approach for cloud computing - Represent a comparative analysis of different DDoS attack tools as well as a third party auditor (TPA) based packet traceback approach.
- Jaqen: A High-Performance Switch-Native Approach for Detecting and Mitigating Volumetric DDoS Attacks with Programmable Switches - A switch-native approach for volumetric DDoS defense that can run detection and mitigation functions entirely inline on switches, without relying on additional data plane hardware.
- DDoS attacks in cloud computing: Issues, taxonomy, and future directions - This paper, present developments related to DDoS attack mitigation solutions in the cloud
- Detection Techniques for DDoS Attacks in Cloud Environment: Review Paper - Presents strenghs and limitations of DDoS detection mechanisms paradigms.
