Some Investigation on DDOS Attack Models in Mobile Networks

With advancements in device and communication technologies,
there has been a great revolution in development of net gadgets and
communication technologies like 4G, 5G etc., in parallel, there has also been a
widespread increase in ways to illegally hack data available over the internet
and tamper the services offered to the customer. Common attacks include
spoofing, Phishing, fraudulent extraction of transaction information and
customer details. There have been attacks to cause traffic congestion over the
network by introducing artificial infection packets over the internet. Hence,
there is a great necessity in research for defence mechanism against these
attacks to ensure smooth and safe provision of services to customers. This paper
investigates and elaborates the different types of attacks that may be incident on
a system or a network, their features and attack mechanisms which provide
useful insights into developing an attack resistant system. Almost all types of
attacks have been discussed systematically in this research paper with special
emphasis on distributed denial of service attacks.
