Distributed Denial of Service Defenses
Project Description
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are increasingly becoming commonplace in today's Internet. Attackers, commandeering thousands of compromised systems distributed across the globe, possess large amounts of resources to deny service to even large service providers. We aim to propose lightweight, deployable defenses that can assist in preventing or mitigating the impact of DDoS attacks
