A Machine Learning based Classification and Prediction Technique for DDoS

Attacks

Objective:

Distributed network attacks are referred to, usually, as Distributed Denial of


Service (DDoS)attacks. These attacks take advantage of specific limitations that
apply to any arrangement asset, such as the framework of the authorized
organization’s site. This paper aims to used a machine learning approach for DDoS
attack types classification and prediction.

Existing System:

In previous studies, we briefly explained all therelated model and the


closest rival to our proposed study. Westudied the latest research papers of the
past two years forthis research work and also Gozde Karatas et al. proposeda
machine learning approach for attacks classification. Theyused different machine
learning algorithms and found that theKNN model is best for classification as
compared to otherresearch work. Nuno Martins et al. proposed
intrusiondetection using machine learning approaches. They usedthe KDD dataset
which is available on the UCI repository.They performed different supervised
models to balance unclassification algorithm for better performance. In this
work,a comparative study was proposed by the use of differentclassification
algorithms and found good results in theirwork. Laurens D’hooge et al. proposed
a systematicreview for malware detection using machine learning mod-els. They
compared different malware datasets from onlineresources as well as approaches
for the dataset. They foundthat machine learning supervised models are very
effectivefor malware detection to make a better decision in less time.Xianwei Gao
et al. proposed a comparative work fornetwork traffic classification. They used
machine learningclassifiers for intrusion detection. The dataset is taken is CI-CIDS
and KDD from the UCI repository. They found supportvector machine SVM one of
the best algorithms as compareto others. Tongtong Su et al. proposed adaptive
learningfor intrusion detection.
Disadvantages:

 Finding way is little complex.


 Sensitive to the scale of the data and irrelevant features.
 The previous classifier works by placing data points, above and below the
classifying hyperplane there is no probabilistic clarification for the
classification..

Proposed System:

The main contribution of this research was to use modern machine learning
techniques to build a model for predicting the DDos attack. Different types of
machine learning classifier algorithms were trained in this study, including
XGBoost, Random Forest Classifier, Gaussian naive bayes and Decision Tree to
select the best predictive model for accurate DDos attack detection Such as
whether it is DDoS-PSH-ACK or DDoS-ACK or Benign.

1.DDoS-PSH-ACK:-
An PSH-ACK is a DDoS attack designed to disrupt network activity by
saturating bandwidth and resources on stateful devices in its path. By
continuously sending ACK-PSH packets towards a target, stateful defenses can go
down (In some cases into a fail open mode).
2.DDoS-ACK :-
An ACK flood attack is when an attacker attempts to overload a server with
TCP ACK packets. Like other DDoS attacks, the goal of an ACK flood is to deny
service to other users by slowing down or crashing the target using junk data.

3.Benign:-
Visual explanation of a benign append attack. “M” refers to malicious and
“B” refers to benign. This attack type is often seen in the real world in the form of
benign library injections. In that case, malicious code is injected into a large
benign file.

Advantages:

 By using machine learning algorithm, the whole process of data


interpretation and analysis is done by computer. No men intervention is
required for the prediction or interpretation of data. The whole process of
machine learning is machine starts learning and predicting the algorithm or
program to give the best result.
 It can handle varieties of data: Even in an uncertain and dynamic
environment, it can handle a variety of data. It is multidimensional as well
as a multitasker.
 It can Can identify trends and patterns easily

Software Requirements:-

 Windows 7,8,10
 Python(Version-Above 3.9)
 Ram(4GB or 8GB)
 Processor(i3 or i5)
