Popis: Distributed denial-of-service attack is a serious concern in this era of voluminous Internet world. The challenge is to find difference between distributed denial-of-service attack traffic of all types and legitimate traffic at the earliest, as we can see high-rate attack traffic and low rate attack traffic resembles with bursty legitimate traffic and normal legitimate traffic, respectively. Self-similarity exists in ethernet traffic. Using Hurst parameter, we have differentiated legitimacy of any traffic irrespective of network traffic protocol. We have validated our method using both benchmark and real-life datasets, and the results are highly satisfactory. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
