Abstract
Disruption precipitated by Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks has escalated drastically in recent years. This is due to the deployment of faster network access technologies, innovative network reliant applications and leading edge devices like smart phones, tablets and Internet of Things (IoT). Applications running on these devices are increasing the dependency of high speed network services. Nonetheless, the main objective of DDoS attacks are to deprive legitimate users of network services by exhausting a victims bandwidth or hardware resources. Most current approaches offer centralized detection and mitigation. However, few proposals focus on deploying DDoS defense and mitigation systems within the ISPs domain, which has the potential to provide scalable and distributed solutions for these attacks. This paper presents a lightweight DDoS attack mitigation system utilising self-organizing map algorithm to classify near real time netflow data collected by the ISP.
