Front-end Management - DDoS Clearing House

BA
State: completed by Karim Khamaisi
Published: 2022-01-24

The DDoS Clearing house is a platform used to share DDoS fingerprints (a signature of DDoS attacks registered by partners in a cooperative alliance to counter DDoS attacks, such as in [1]). 

This enables critical service providers to (1) increase their insight into DDoS attacks from their own narrow view to an ecosystem-wide view, and (2) increase their capabilities to handle DDoS attacks because the new insights give them more grip on the requirements that they need to put on their DDoS mitigation facilities (their own or those of a contracted third party). 

The major goal of this topic is to build a simple/straightforward front-end to manage the handling of PCAPs and sharing information, taking as a basis the running prototype available in [2] and [3]. Thus, the front-end should interface with a running terminal-based backend to update its status, being provided as an additional tab in [3].
