Survey of Network-Based Defense Mechanisms Countering the DoS and DDoSProblems
This article presents a survey of denial of service attacks and the methodsthat have been proposed for defense against these attacks. In this survey, we analyze the designdecisions in the Internet that have created the potential for denial of service attacks. We reviewthe state-of-art mechanisms for defending against denial of service attacks, compare the strengthsand weaknesses of each proposal, and discuss potential countermea-sures against each defensemechanism. We conclude by highlighting opportunities for an integrated solution to solve the problemof distributed denial of service attacks.
