Lsav: Lightweight Source Address Validation In Sdn To Counteract Ip Spoofing-Based Ddos Attacks, Ali̇ Karakoç, Fati̇h Alagöz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, we propose a design to detect and prevent IP spoofing-based distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks on software-defined networks (SDNs). DDoS attacks are still one of the significant problems for internet service providers (ISPs) and individual users. These attacks can disrupt customer services by targeting the availability of the system, and in some cases, they can completely shut down the target infrastructure. Protecting the system against DDoS attacks is therefore crucial for ensuring the reliability and availability of internet services. To address this problem, we propose a lightweight source address validation (LSAV) framework that leverages the flexibility …
