DoS Attacks And Mitigation Techniques

Whitepaper called Denial of Service attacks and mitigation techniques: Real time implementation with detailed analysis. Unlike other theoretical studies, this paper lays down the steps involved in implementing these attacks in real time networks. These real time attacks are measured and analyzed using network traffic monitors. In addition to that, this project also details various defense strategies that could be enabled on Cisco routers in order to mitigate these attacks. The detection and mitigation mechanisms designed here are effective for small network topologies and can also be extended to analogous large domains.
