Abstract | Software-defined networking (SDN) is a new networking architecture having the concept of separation of control plane and data plane that leads the existing networks to be programmable, dynamically configurable and extremely flexible. This paradigm has huge benefits to organizations and large networks, however, its security is major issue and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Attack has become a serious concern for the working of SDN. In this article, we have proposed a taxonomy of DDoS Defense Mechanisms in SDN Environment. We have categorized the various DDoS detection and mitigation techniques with respect to switch intelligence, Defense Deployment, Defense Activity and Network Flow Activities. |
