Regularized Hybrid Deep Learning for DDoS Attack Prediction in Software Defined Internet of Things (SD-IoT)
J Deepthy, N. Radhika, Alosh Denny · 2024
The availability of online resource is seriously threatened by the fatal DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks, which can earnestly break up a targeted network or website by flooding it with traffic. DDoS attacks can use a variety of tactics and can be launched from different points around the world, making it difficult to predict when they will occur. In order to improve accuracy by minimizing overfitting of data in CNN, this work proposes an efficient method by combining CNN with Bi-LSTM for predicting DDoS attacks based on a modified loss function with regularization. We test our method on the CICDDOS2019 dataset of network traffic and demonstrate that it can accurately and successfully predict DDoS attacks with an accuracy of 99.8% and an F-score of 97.29%.
