Abstract

This chapter delves into the critical role of machine learning in combating Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, which can cripple online systems by overwhelming them with excessive traffic. The text explores the effectiveness of various machine learning algorithms, such as K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) and Random Forest, in detecting and mitigating these attacks. It provides a detailed comparison of these algorithms, highlighting their advantages and limitations. The chapter also discusses the importance of data preparation, labeling, and model training in developing robust machine learning models for DDoS detection. Additionally, it presents experimental results that demonstrate the high accuracy of KNN and Random Forest algorithms in identifying DDoS attacks. The chapter concludes with a comprehensive framework for DDoS attack classification and prediction, offering a systematic approach to data utilization and efficient detection of these cyber threats.
