Research on DDoS detection in multi-tenant cloud based on entropy change

An attacker compromised a number of VMs in the cloud to form his own network to launch a powerful distrib-uted denial of service (DDoS) attack.DDoS attack is a serious threat to multi-tenant cloud.It is difficult to detect which VM in the cloud are compromised and what is the attack target,especiall...

description An attacker compromised a number of VMs in the cloud to form his own network to launch a powerful distrib-uted denial of service (DDoS) attack.DDoS attack is a serious threat to multi-tenant cloud.It is difficult to detect which VM in the cloud are compromised and what is the attack target,especially when the VM in the cloud is the victim.A DDoS detection method was presented suitable for multi-tenant cloud environment by identifying the malicious VM at-tack sources first and then the victims.A distributed detection framework was proposed.The distributed agent detects the suspicious VM which generate the potential DDoS attack traffic flows on the source side.A central server confirms the real attack flows.The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed detection method are verified by experiments in the multi-tenant cloud environment.
