Abstract:

This paper explores distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, their current threat level, and intrusion detection systems (IDS), which are one of key techniques for mitigating them. It focuses on the problems and issues that IDS systems encounter while detecting DDoS attacks, as well as the difficulties and obstacles that they face nowadays when integrating with artificial intelligence systems. These ID systems enable the automatic and realtime identification of harmful threats. However, the network requires a highly sophisticated security solution due to the frequency with which malicious threats emerge and change. A significant amount of research is required to create an intelligent and trustworthy identification system for research purposes; numerous ID datasets are freely accessible. Due to the rapid evolution of attack detection mechanisms and the complexity of malicious attacks, publicly available Identification databases must be completely changed. on a regular basis. Due to the ever-evolving attack detection mechanism and the complexity of malicious attacks, publicly available ID datasets must frequently be modified. A Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) network was trained using four distinct training algorithms. The CICDDoS2019 dataset, which contains the most recent DDoS attack types created in CICDDoS2019, was tested, According to the analysis; the "Gradient Descent with Momentum Backpropagation" algorithm could be trained quickly. Network data attacks were correctly detected 93.1 percent of the time. The results indicate that The Convolutional Neural Network is able to successfully defend against DDoS attacks detection by using intrusion detection systems IDS, as evidenced by the high accuracy values obtained.
