Abstract

Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks appear to be main threats for cloud computing. The protection of cloud services against DoS and DDoS attacks is realized using Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs). This paper aims to evaluate the experimental results of our proposed quantitative solution. The experiments are performed in a private cloud model deployed using Eucalyptus open-source, with virtual machines based IDS (VMs-based IDS) being created in three nodes and the Mysql database together with the graphical interfaces for monitoring the alerts being installed and configured in the front-end server. After a set of DDoS attacks are launched against the VMs-based IDS, we analyze all the alerts collected from the VMs-based IDS.
