Selected practical and effective techniques to combat distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks

Abstract
Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks cause devastating effects on the web services and hence harms the digital availability. The DDoS attackers use vulnerabilities exposed by new networking technologies such as wireless, mobile, IoT, and associated protocol weaknesses for bringing down the networks and servers. Owing to availability of easily available tools and botnet armies, the DDoS attack incidences in the Internet world are increasing day by day. Though several techniques have been proposed by the researchers against DDoS attacks, this chapter presents selected practical and effective DDoS techniques in use these days. These includes: content distribution networks (CDNs), scrubbing centers, blockchain technology, software define networking (SDN), and honeypots. The chapter discusses these methodologies and tries to figure out the reasons for success of these methodologies against DDoS attacks. An analysis of these solution and comparative study is done so that future proposals against DDoS attacks based upon principles of these methodologies may develop.
