Kutub Thakur · 2015
In the globalized world, Internet has out grown rapidly as a universal communication network tool, which not only allows sharing information but the entire tasks cooperatively through computing resources. However, over last few decades an illegal acts has numerously increased in the networks and moreover the devious and malicious has increased in their content and among them, especially denial of service (DoS) attacks is identified to be difficult. Thus the present paper aims to explore the DoS flooding attack problem and attempts to combat it with the classifiable countermeasures that prevent, detect, and respond to the DoS flooding attacks. The study adopted the secondary data collection method and data was collected various online and offline sources. The study proposed a cyber-security TCP- SYN is identified to be the effect method to mitigate and block the DDoS attacks and the implementation of these particular cost-effective defense mechanisms against these kinds of attack supports the business continuity to enhance their performance thoroughly.
