The decoupling of control and data planes in software-defined networking (SDN) facilitates orchestrating the network traffic. However, SDN suffers from critical security issues, such as DoS saturation attacks on the data plane. These attacks can exhaust the SDN component resources, including the computational resources of the control plane, create a high packet loss rate and a long delay in delivering the OpenFlow messages due to the bandwidth consumption of the OpenFlow connection channel, and exhausting the buffer memory of the data plane.
Currently, most of the existing machine learning detection methods rely on a predefined time-window to start analyzing the …
