Cloud-Base Defense Against DRDoS Attacks

In this paper, we present our new approach for protecting production servers from distributed reflector denial of service attacks, while the volume of their attacking traffic has been exponentially increasing. We apply a cloud to effectively sieving out the reflectors of the attacking traffic. We assessed the convergence delay for sieving using simulations. Our simulation results indicated that the proposed protection method promising, showing the approach is scalable in both attacking traffic volume and attacker ratio.
