Abstract

DDoS attack always takes advantage of structure of Internet and imbalance of resources between defender and attacker. DDoS attacks are driven by factors like interdependency of Internet's security, limited resources, fewer incentives for home users and local ISPs, flexibility of handlers to control multiple compromised systems at the same time, untraceable nature of malicious packets and unfair distribution of resources all over the Internet. This survey chapter gives a comprehensive view on DDoS attacks and its defense mechanisms. Defense mechanisms are categorized according to the deployment position and nature of defense. Comprehensive study of DDoS attacks will definitely help researchers to understand the important issues related to cyber security.
