Abstract:

Distinguishing between attack and legitimate traffic in volumetric DDoS scenarios is challenging. Hierarchical Heavy Hitter algorithms can efficiently monitor high-volume traffic aggregates, but provide no insight into traffic composition. Monitoring complementary traffic features enables classification of traffic aggregates with machine learning, but increases the memory footprint of Hierarchical Heavy Hitter algorithms. Since the performance of these algorithms depends on the efficiency of memory usage, we evaluate feature importance to find a compact feature set for accurate distinction of legitimate and attack traffic.
