DDoS Attacks: Tools, Mitigation Approaches, and Probable Impact on Private Cloud Environment
It addresses security concerns for private cloud users, but is incremental as it reviews existing methods without introducing new solutions.
The paper examines DDoS attack mitigation approaches and challenges in private cloud environments, highlighting the increased vulnerability due to limited resources.
The future of the Internet is predicted to be on the cloud, resulting in more complex and more intensive computing, but possibly also a more insecure digital world. The presence of a large amount of resources organized densely is a key factor in attracting DDoS attacks. Such attacks are arguably more dangerous in private individual clouds with limited resources. This paper discusses several prominent approaches introduced to counter DDoS attacks in private clouds. We also discuss issues and challenges to mitigate DDoS attacks in private clouds.
