An Overall Study on DDoS Attack & its Protection

Abstract

The project “An overall study on DDoS Attack & its Protection” is based on network security as it’s a now-a-days most important issue in the current internet world. The purpose of this project to know about a one kind of networking attack like DDoS and how it acts during an attack and how can we take steps against it for both theoretically and network device appliance level. The overall project is divided into two main modules. First, we have developed an simulation system where we had shown how a DDoS attack is executed over a server and how it behaves during the attack. Here, I uses VMWare Workstation and Kali Linus OS which then we cloned for demonstration of the attack. Second, I’ve developed the proposed solution of my own against DDoS attack and also appended the solution of different network vendor in the world. If anyone take steps against DDoS attack he/she should take measures for both theoretically and appliance level. Because no one knows how can they became attack against their system or network. So, I think if anyone take steps against from both criteria we’ll be kept ourselves safe from such a dangerous attack in the internet world like DDoS.
