| Summary: | Denial-of-service (DoS) attacks on website systems have
become increasingly sophisticated. These attacks are evolving
at a pace and complexity that outstrips the capabilities of
current defensive measures. This paper presents an effective
method to enhance the resilience against distributed denial-of-
service (DDoS) attacks by implementing an overlay network
architecture to protect website systems. This architecture
employs a group of Secure Overlay Access Points (SOAP) to
authenticate and distinguish legitimate users from malicious
attackers, ensuring that valid requests are routed to hidden
nodes within the overlay network via Secure Sockets Layer
(SSL) connections. These hidden nodes then forward user
requests through a filtering region before delivering them to
the target server. The study has introduced enhancements to
the existing overlay network architecture to promptly detect
scenarios where a network node becomes a source of attack
and automatically reroute queries to prevent potential damage.
After conducting experimental simulations of attack scenarios,
the improved architecture has been tested and yielded
auspicious and reliable results compared to the original
architecture. This approach contributes to mitigating and
reducing the impact of DDoS attacks on modern websites. |
