Overview:

Denial of Service (DoS) attacks pose a severe security threat to the steady functioning of any network. These attacks aim at depleting the resources of a server or an administrative network by overwhelming it with enormous and useless traffic. The outcome of this is the fact that legitimate users are denied service. Though an array of schemes has been proposed for the detection of the presence of these attacks, characterizing of the flows as a normal flow or a malicious one, identifying the sources of the attacks and mitigating the effects of the attacks once they have been detected, there is still a dearth of complete frameworks that encompass multiple stages of the process of defense against DoS attacks.
