Enhancing DDoS Attack Detection and Network Resilience Through Ensemble-Based Packet Processing and Bandwidth Optimization

Abstract

It is critical to identify Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks to preserve network integrity and guarantee continuous service delivery. Our research suggests a novel way to lower the network's packet drop ratio and improve the accuracy of DDoS attack detection. Conventional techniques occasionally just use anomaly detection or signature-based detection, which might not be sufficient to protect against DDoS assault schemes that are always changing. To increase the precision and resilience of DDoS detection, our system incorporates several detection strategies, such as signature-based, anomaly-based, and machine learning-based techniques. Additionally, we use network traffic analysis and anomaly detection tools to quickly discover and block harmful traffic patterns. During suspected DDoS attempts, we dynamically modify network parameters and reroute data to reduce the packet drop ratio and maintain service for authorized users. Additionally, our system has feedback systems that allow us to continuously adjust and improve detection algorithms, improving the overall dependability and effectiveness of DDoS attack detection. We illustrate how successfully our method lowers packet drop ratios and strengthens network resilience against DDoS attacks using both simulation and real-world experience.
