Predicting Cyber Attacks in a Proxy Server using Support Vector Machine (SVM) Learning Algorithm

This study used the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm to predict Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on a proxy server. Proxy-servers are prone to attacks such as DoS and DDoS and existing detection and prediction systems are inefficient. Three convex optimization problems using the Gaussian, linear and non-linear kernel methods were solved using the SVM m...
