Enhancing secure cloud computing environment by Detecting DDoS attack using fuzzy logic

Abstract

Cloud computing has become a part and parcel of our daily life. It just made our life easier with its amazing features. To support increasing number of users as well as smart devices, it is needed to keep the cloud environment more and more secure and reliable. Cloud computing security has become a major challenging field now a days. In this paper we presented a Fuzzy based mechanism, which may be helpful for the detection of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack in cloud computing environment. As DDoS attack becomes powerful with the passing of time, if it is detected at first, then the attack may be minimized. So we focused on attack detection mechanism to secure the cloud environment using Fuzzy logic.
