ABSTRACT
Most of the business applications on the Internet are dependent on web services for their transactions. Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks either degrade or completely disrupt web services by sending flood of packets and requests towards the victim web servers. An array of defense schemes are proposed but still defending web service from DDoS attacks is largely an unsolvable problem so far. In this paper, DDoS defense schemes are classified into centralized and distributed and their relative advantages and disadvantages are explored. An ISP based distributed approach is a pragmatic solution to defend from DDoS attacks due to its autonomous control, more resources, and incremental scope. Traffic cluster entropy is conceptualized from source address entropy and the combination is used to detect various types of DDoS attacks against the web service. A framework is proposed which can detect the attack, characterize attack sources, and filter the attack packets as early as possible so as to minimize the collateral damage
