Naïve Bayes Classifier to Mitigate the DDoS Attacks Severity in Ad-Hoc Networks

Ad-Hoc networks are becoming more popular due to their unique characteristics. As there is no centralized control, these networks are more vulnerable to various attacks, out of which Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are considered as more severe attacks. DDoS attack detection and mitigation is still a challenging issue in Ad-Hoc Networks. The existing solutions consider the fixed or dynamic threshold value to detect the DDoS attacks without any trained data, and very few existing solutions use machine learning algorithms to detect these attacks. However, existing solutions are inefficient to handle when DDoS attackers’ perform this attack through bursty traffic, packet size, and fake packets flooding. We have proposed DDoS attack severity mitigation solution. Out DDoS mitigation solution consists of new network node authentication module and naïve bayes classifier module to detect and isolate the DDoS attack traffic patterns. Our simulation results show that naïve bayes DDoS attack traffic classification out performs in the hostile environment and secure the legitimate traffic from DDoS attack

ForChaos: Real Time Application DDoS detection using Forecasting and Chaos Theory in Smart Home IoT Network

Recently, D/DoS attacks have been launched by zombie IoT devices in smart home networks. They pose a great threat to to network systems with Application Layer DDoS attacks being especially hard to detect due to their stealth and seemingly legitimacy. In this paper, we propose we propose ForChaos, a lightweight detection algorithm for IoT devices, that is based on forecasting and chaos theory to identify flooding and DDoS attacks. For every time-series behaviour collected, a forecasting-technique prediction is generated, based on a number of features, and the error between the two values is calcualted. In order to assess the error of the forecasting from the actual value, the lyapunov exponent is used to detect potential malicious behaviour. In NS-3 we evaluate our detection algorithm through a series of experiments in Flooding and Slow-Rate DDoS attacks. The results are presented and discussed in detail and compared with related studies, demonstrating its effectiveness and robustness

Exploratory study to explore the role of ICT in the process of knowledge management in an Indian business environment

In the 21st century and the emergence of a digital economy, knowledge and the knowledge base economy are rapidly growing. To effectively be able to understand the processes involved in the creating, managing and sharing of knowledge management in the business environment is critical to the success of an organization. This study builds on the previous research of the authors on the enablers of knowledge management by identifying the relationship between the enablers of knowledge management and the role played by information communication technologies (ICT) and ICT infrastructure in a business setting. This paper provides the findings of a survey collected from the four major Indian cities (Chennai, Coimbatore, Madurai and Villupuram) regarding their views and opinions about the enablers of knowledge management in business setting. A total of 80 organizations participated in the study with 100 participants in each city. The results show that ICT and ICT infrastructure can play a critical role in the creating, managing and sharing of knowledge in an Indian business environment

Early Detection and Prevention of DDOS attack on VANET

Growing number of vehicles in use has ushered in the service to provide human and resource safety. The present trend calls for the application of technology to automate safety measures in road traffic and since has been known as Intelligent Transport System (ITS). Vehicular Ad hoc Network is like a fork to Mobile Ad hoc Network , where the nodes are mobile vehicles moving in constrained road topology. VANET networks are envisioned to be used in practical ITS systems around the world. A network standard has been developed as Wireless Access In Vehicular Environment (IEEE 802.11p) to be used in VANET which is an amendment to IEEE 802.11 standard. With every new technological applications especially computers and network applications, come new security challenges. Every network in modern day is susceptible to security attacks and VANET is no exception. The most infamous of those attacks is the Distributed Denial of Service Attack which is unavoidable because unlike other security attacks the data packets used in it are legitimate packets. In this thesis work previous solutions are reviewed and a new offensive measure for detection, mitigation and prevention has been propose
