Availability of information and services, along with integrity and confidentiality presents a critical parameter in security in information and communication systems. Activities focused on denial of network communication availability are current from the beginning of global communication network development and they demand continuous development of protection methods. Significant challenge is the emergence of the Internet of Things (IoT) concept which will significantly increase the number of connected devices. That kind of environment is possible to use for generation of DDoS attacks. The paper investigates the effect of a significant increase in the number of connected devices in the IoT concept on increase of the number and volume of DDoS attacks.
