Description of your Project
A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is indeed a common and almost universal type of cyber attack. Its goal is to disrupt an organization's operations by flooding a target's network, web service, or technological resources with junk traffic. The amount of traffic directed at the goal can severely limit its availability or bring it completely offline.
DDoS attacks are successful in part because they use web devices that have already infected with malware. To gain remote control, an attacker exploits existing vulnerabilities in tens, thousands and thousands, thousands, or even millions of devices.
The 'Distributed' part of Distributed Denial of Service refers to this process of remote orchestration. With the proliferation of world wide web household items such as refrigerators as well as thermostats, attackers now now have even more mildly encrypted devices to exploit.
Why should DDoS attacks be addressed?
It is difficult to quantify the damage that DDoS attacks can cause. However, an organisation must consider the costs of various consequences, such as the following:
Extended service interruption
Employee productivity constraints
Breach of data
Reputational harm
SEO ranking deterioration
Ransomware/extortion attacks
Project Goal
Create a binary classification model that can distinguish between legitimate/benign and malicious traffic in order to mitigate the effects of a DDoS attack on an organization's operations. If the traffic was legitimate, it would routed to a company's services. It would be blocked if it was malicious. This would ensure that service availability for actual users while also protecting against the aforementioned DDoS attacks.
Project Details
The project is about DDoS Attack. We will discuss about it in depth.
We will understand the difference between DoS Attack and DDoS Attack.
I selected this topic so that , I could create a solution that organizations can use to legitimate traffic and defend against...
