Analysis and Implementation of Machine Learning Approaches to DDoS Attack Detection

Project's result

The CICDDoS2019 dataset was used in the research. 3 detection techniques were trained and tested using Decision Tree, Random Forest, and SVM (Linear kernel) models. Their effectiveness was evaluated and compared.

They started it from zero. Are you ready to level up with us?

Summary

The student will perform a background study on how DDoS attacks work, and will work with a real world dataset to perform data analysis and develop a detection technique.
