Detection And Mitigation of Distributed Denial of Service Attack by Signature based Intrusion Detection System

Hardik M. Shingala | Mukesh Sakle

Abstract: Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is the most effective and comparatively easy to create. This attack has a terrible effect on the network. This attack can be carried out easily. But as the problem is the solutions are also for the attack. Here we propose an idea of IDS which is inside router and can protect it much better than any other protocol change. Because as we see that all protocol must need to coordinate with each other and that is not possible because not all router uses same security as ours. So to solve this problem we need to have a standalone system that can handle this kind of attack. The Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is one solution that we proposed here which will help us to identify that when the attack is going on and after that to protect our router form that attack. Here we proposed a signature based host IDS so that all the signatures of the attack is inside the IDS from the beginning and thus we can identify the packets as quickly as possible.
