DDoS Simulation: Empowering Targets through Simulated Attacks
2023 | Conference paper
Abstract:
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks pose a significant threat to online services, causing disruption and financial losses to victim organizations. To enhance the preparedness of potential targets, this research paper introduces the concept of a DDoS simulation portal. The portal, exemplified by ddosattack.online, aims to simulate DDoS attacks and provide valuable insights to help targets understand their limits and devise effective mitigation strategies. The paper reviews Layer 7 attacks, outlines the development and usage of the simulation portal, and discusses future plans for incorporating Layer 4 attacks and expanding attack locations.

New types of DoS/DDoS attacks require alternative approaches to security
2022 | Journal article
Abstract:
This study examined cases where a system completely crashes when a user sends 2–3 DoS requests per second. The aim of these attacks is to find weak code or incorrect settings in the system. The research highlights the inadequacy of providing protection only at code and server levels or with security equipment, especially in critical infrastructures and dedicated networks. The performance and resource requirements of applications running on servers should also be considered and evaluated as security elements. The Hulk DoS tool was used to detect and simulate the problem mentioned in the research by carrying out attacks with different frequencies. Furthermore, various solutions are given to find and prevent these attacks.laboratory accreditation, the methodology, and the lesson learnt. This paper is hoped to provide guidance to those who would like to pursue accreditation for their Digital Forensics Laboratories (DFL).
