Abstract Text | Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks occur daily and are growing in size due to the Internet of Things (IoT) popularity. Since many of these devices are designed to be insecure, botnets can use them to launch large-scale attacks. DDoS attacks are highly distributed; thus, the best counter plan also includes a distributed defense to reduce attacking traffic at several locations that may be closer to their origins. This thesis tries to develop a DDoS signaling network called GossipSub DDoS Signaling System (GoDDSSy), which operates in a trusted environment and is agile and resilient. The reader is first provided with a theoretical overview covering the fundamentals of DDoS attacks and publish-and-subscribe systems. Furthermore, a summary of related work is given. Additionally, the design of GoDDSSy is proposed, which is then later implemented, deployed, and evaluated. Results show that GoDDSSy operates in an agile and resilient way. In addition, we show the limits of the implemented system and how it performs compared to related systems. |
