Abstract:
The project “An overall study on DDoS Attack & its Protection” is based on network security
as it’s a now-a-days most important issue in the current internet world. The purpose of this
project to know about a one kind of networking attack like DDoS and how it acts during an
attack and how can we take steps against it for both theoretically and network device appliance
level. The overall project is divided into two main modules. First, we have developed an
simulation system where we had shown how a DDoS attack is executed over a server and how it
behaves during the attack. Here, I uses VMWare Workstation and Kali Linus OS which then we
cloned for demonstration of the attack. Second, I’ve developed the proposed solution of my own
against DDoS attack and also appended the solution of different network vendor in the world. If
anyone take steps against DDoS attack he/she should take measures for both theoretically and
appliance level. Because no one knows how can they became attack against their system or
network. So, I think if anyone take steps against from both criteria we’ll be kept ourselves safe
from such a dangerous attack in the internet world like DDoS.
