DDoS attacks in cloud environment
Keywords:
DDoS, HTTP flood molest, cloud security worries, cloud computing, ping death, slow loris, SYN flood assaultsAbstract
Network communication is gaining day by day in different ways. Cloud is one of the most recent and latest environments in communication. Whereas this environment is a facilitator for the user to access his/her information from anywhere as and when required. But this technological enhancement is also opening the door for new attacks. In this paper, we have conducted an extensive study on the Distributed Denial of Service Attack (DDoS) as well as the techniques which are used up till now for detection as well as prevention of those attacks. We also have thoroughly presented the details of some very frequent techniques and in the end, we have also discussed some research gaps. This study will facilitate the new research in this era to find out the research problems and provide the optimal solutions for those problems.
