Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) is a menace for service provider and prominent issue in network security. Defeating or defending the DDoS is a prime challenge. DDoS make a service unavailable for a certain time. This phenomenon harms the service providers, and hence, causes loss of business revenue. Therefore, DDoS is a grand challenge to defeat. There are numerous mechanism to defend DDoS, however, this paper surveys the deployment of Bloom Filter in defending the DDoS attack. The Bloom Filter is a probabilistic data structure for membership query that returns either true or false. Bloom Filter uses tiny memory to store information of large data. Therefore, packet information is stored in Bloom Filter to defend and defeat DDoS. This paper presents a survey on DDoS defending technique using Bloom Filter.

Due to the influence of the multi-level system, the DDoS became a significant investigation in modern days. This encourages us to reduce the data loss and service overheads. In order to investigate these issues, an investigation of the DDoS attack and their related security techniques were analyzed in this paper. So, in this investigation, various data about the intruders will be collected by employing a secured multi-layered design with nomadic honeypots. Our proposed Subterranean Optimization procedure is utilized to distinguish the gatecrashers in view of the pheromone store on that considered zone. A multi-degree IP log table is utilized to distinguish the gatecrashers at diverse ranges of the device. Once the prompted range is found, the information is sent to multi-degree engineering to restrain the spreading of the stimulated region within the honeypot. This statistics will be dispatched to the honeypot to make a guard framework towards the attackers. The advantage of this proposed strategy is that it gives a complete barrier against DDoS at multilevel without making any overhead.

“…In this type of attack, message content manipulation is used, which in turn causes a crash in the web server. Due to the complexity and parsing of XML documents, even a small malformed XML message can cause a huge consumption of server resources [21]. There are numerous types of XDoS attacks.…”

A web service is defined as the method of communication between the web applications and the clients. Web services are very flexible and scalable as they are independent of both the hardware and software infrastructure. The lack of security protection offered by web services creates a gap which attackers can make use of. Web services are offered on the HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) with Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) as the underlying infrastructure. Web services rely heavily on the Extended Mark-up Language (XML). Hence, web services are most vulnerable to attacks which use XML as the attack parameter. Recently, a new type of XML-based Denial-of-Service (XDoS) attacks has surfaced, which targets the web services. The purpose of these attacks is to consume the system resources by sending SOAP requests that contain malicious XML content. Unfortunately, these malicious requests go undetected underneath the network or transportation layers of the Transfer Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), as they appear to be legitimate packets.In this paper, a middleware tool is proposed to provide real time detection and prevention of XDoS and HTTP flooding attacks in web service. This tool focuses on the attacks on the two layers of the Open System Interconnection (OSI) model, which are to detect and prevent XDoS attacks on the application layer and prevent flooding attacks at the Network layer.The rule-based approach is used to classify requests either as normal or malicious,in order to detect the XDoS attacks. The experimental results from the middleware tool have demonstrated that the rule-based technique has efficiently detected and prevented theattacks of XDoS and HTTP flooding attacks such as the oversized payload, coercive parsing and XML external entities close to real-time such as 0.006s over the web services. The middleware tool provides close to 100% service availability to normal request, hence protecting the web service against the attacks of XDoS and distributed XDoS (DXDoS).\
