DDoS Attack Using GoldenEye, DAVOSET, and PyLoris Tools

Abstract

The development of computer networks is happening very rapidly, both in commercial installations, academics and homes of residents who now need and use internet access. Computer networks become a shared resource that is used by many applications representing different interests. With the ability and experience possessed by a hacker, he tries various kinds of computer network attacks with tools that are made independently or those that already exist are immediately used. A Distributed Denial of Service attack or what is often referred to as DDoS is a distributed attack with the aim of consuming the victim's bandwidth or resource availability by flooding servers, network links, and network devices with unauthorized traffic. Some of the DDoS tools used to carry out attacks include GoldenEye, DAVOSET, PyLoris. From the test results it was found that the GoldenEye tool was the most effective tool in causing the website to be inaccessible within 20 seconds and with 10,584 connections. Purpose: The purpose of this research is to compare DDoS attacks from the GoldenEye, DAVOSET, and PyLoris tools.. Methods/Study design/approach: In this research, forensic research methods are used which aim to test system performance for analyzing file metadata in a digital evidence investigation process. Result/Findings: The results found in this research are the effectiveness of time, number of attacks, and protocols used in the GoldenEye, DAVOSET, and PyLoris tools. Novelty/Originality/Value: The novelty/originality/value used in this research provides documentation of the execution of attacks by the GoldenEye, DAVOSET, and PyLoris tools.
