Distributed denial of service is a critical threat that is responsible for halting the normal functionality of services in cloud computing environments. Distributing Denial of Service attacks is categorized in the level of crucial attacks that undermine the network's functionality. These attacks have become sophisticated and continue to grow rapidly, and it has become a challenging task to detect and address these attacks. There is a need for Intelligent Intrusion detection systems that can classify and detect anomalous behavior in network traffic. This research was performed on the cloudstack environment using Tor Hammer as an attacking mechanism, and the Intrusion Detection System produced a new dataset. This analysis incorporates numerous algorithms of machine learning: k-means, decision tree, Random Forest, Naïve Bayes, Support Vector Machine and C4.5
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
