Survey on Recent DDoS Mitigation Techniques and Comparative Analysis

Customers trust is the most important factor for an organization success. This trust only builds if customers receive unhindered services from their vendors. A major threat in successfully building a customer-vendor trust relationship exists in the form of Distributed Denial of Service attacks. These attacks have become more evasive and complex with time such that existing security mechanisms are not sufficient to counter them. A lot of techniques are already proposed by various researchers to counter these attacks which have their own application domain, advantages and disadvantages. In this paper we present an extensive survey of recent DDoS mitigation techniques along with their comparative analysis.
