Enhancing Network Security Against DDoS Attacks: An Analysis of OPNET Modelers

DDoS attacks are becoming more prevalent, which poses serious problems for network performance and security. This investigation makes use of the OPNET Modeler to thoroughly analyze how DDoS attacks affect network performance and investigate efficient discovery techniques. Three scripts are closely investigated, including an original network, a DoS assault, and a DDoS attack. DDoS attacks can result in significant packet loss rates, according to the report, underscoring the crucial importance of network security measures. The paper also examines several DDoS discovery techniques, emphasizing the demand for uniform simulation environments. As the digital geography evolves, visionary security strategies are imperative to insure network adaptability and optimal functionality.
