Decentralized Defense Against Volumetric DDoS (Paperback)

Paperback. Decentralized Defense Against Volumetric DDoS examines the security challenges associated with large-scale distributed denial-of-service attacks and the architectural principles used to strengthen network resilience against overwhelming traffic volumes. Volumetric DDoS attacks are designed to consume available bandwidth, network capacity, or infrastructure resources by generating massive amounts of traffic from distributed sources. Because the attack traffic can originate from many locations and may resemble legitimate network activity, effective protection requires more than simple source blocking. ([National Cyber Security Centre])The book focuses on the concept of decentralized defense as a strategy for improving the ability of distributed network environments to absorb, identify, filter, and respond to high-volume malicious traffic. It provides a technical perspective on DDoS resilience, network availability, traffic management, distributed security architecture, attack mitigation, and defensive coordination. The subject is particularly relevant to modern environments in which services depend on continuously available network connectivity and distributed infrastructure. The book explores decentralized defense, traffic filtering, attack detection, bandwidth exhaustion, network resilience, mitigation architecture, and service availability.
