A Prevention of DDos Attacks in Cloud Using Honeypot
Kumar Shridhar, Nikhil Gautam
Abstract: Cloud computing is a type of internet based computing where different services such as server, storage and applications are shared on the internet. This makes cloud computing one of the most promising and rapidly growing technology. As it relies on sharing computer resources, it is prone to various security risks. One such security issue is Distributed Denial of Services attack on cloud. A DDos attack can originate from anywhere in the network and typically overwhelms the victim server by sending a huge number of packets. This paper deals with the prevention of DDos attacks and how honeypot approach can be used in cloud computing to counter DDos attacks.
