“…ey would also have a substantial influence on the performance of SDN, as the controller would have to deal with several connections produced by the DDOS attacks. As a result, Y. C. Wang and Y. C. Wang [35] designed a lightweight but effective ELD method to protect against protocol-type DDoS attacks, with the goal of reducing the controller's operating cost in detecting and stopping attacks quickly. Due to limited memory space, the authors proposed an NRES data storage technique using ELD to assist the controller in recording current packets while saving a small number of older packets for references, which presents a more comprehensive and higher level picture of attacks.…”

The Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is one of the most critical issues in network security. These sorts of attacks pose a noteworthy danger to the accessibility of network services for their legitimate users by flooding the bandwidth or network service using various infected computer systems. The targeted servers are overwhelmed with malicious packets or connection requests, causing them to slow down or even crash the server operations which results in preventing genuine users from accessing the service. In this paper, we discussed the detailed classification of DDoS attacks and identified attackers’ motivations behind them and their consequences. Further, the DDoS attacks on IoT devices are elaborated based on applications and network layers. A comprehensive literature review has been conducted on cutting-edge defense techniques to defend against such attacks. An in-depth analysis of each mechanism has been carried out to find the optimal solutions. We fairly evaluated the existing defense techniques for DDoS attacks and presented key findings in comparison tables. Furthermore, this paper provides recommendations for future work for new researchers.

In the evolving landscape of smart libraries, this research pioneers an IoT-based low-cost architecture utilizing Software-Defined Networking (SDN). The increasing demand for more efficient and economical solutions in library management, particularly in the realm of RFID-based processes such as authentication, property circulation, and book loans, underscores the significance of this study. Leveraging the collaborative potential of IoT and SDN technologies, our proposed system introduces a fresh perspective to tackle these challenges and advance intelligent library management. In response to the evolving landscape of smart libraries, our research presents an Internet of Things (IoT)-based low-cost architecture utilizing SDN. The exploration of this architectural paradigm arises from a recognized gap in the existing literature, pointing towards the necessity for more efficient and cost-effective solutions in managing library processes. Our proposed algorithm integrates IoT and SDN technologies to intelligently oversee various library activities, specifically targeting RFID-based processes such as authentication, property circulation management, and book loan management. The system's architecture, encompasses components like the data center, SDN controllers, RFID tags, tag readers, and other network sensors. By leveraging the synergy between RFID and SDN, our innovative approach reduces the need for constant operator supervision in libraries. The scalability and software-oriented nature of the architecture cater to extensive library environments. Our study includes a two-phase investigation, combining practical implementation in a small-scale library with a simulation environment using MATLAB 2021. This research not only fills a crucial gap in current knowledge but also lays the foundation for future advancements in the integration of IoT and SDN technologies for intelligent library management.

“…In [46], The destructive effect of the DDoS attack on the controller layer in SDN and the extent of violations in the performance of the entire SDN system are investigated. Reduction of damage and defending against the DDoS attack has been considered in [47]. The authors have presented a low-cost approach to reducing the controller's overhead.…”

In recent years, the use of Software Defined Networking (SDN) has increased due to various network management requirements. Using SDN in computer network applications has brought several benefits to users, including lower operational costs, better hardware management, flexibility, and centralized network deployment. On the other hand, the Internet of Things (IoT) is another rapidly growing technology. Distributed and dynamic infrastructures are two critical characteristics of IoT. These characteristics lead to some challenges while using SDN in IoT in terms of security and privacy. In this paper, we address security and privacy issues and solutions for SDN-based IoT systems. We analyze the techniques used for defense in previous works to achieve an acceptable level of security and privacy protection in SDN-based IoT systems. In the data plane, SDN-based IoT papers have considered hashing and encryption techniques, in the control plane, certificate authority and access control have been analyzed, and in the application plane, attack detection, and authentication have been discussed. We also provide a statistical analysis of the existing work. This analysis shows that researchers have focused on certain areas more than others in recent years. The final analysis also highlights issues that previous researchers have ignored.
