Taxonomy of DDoS attacks and their defense mechanisms in IoT

Abstract

IoT promised great involvement in the industry as per the earlier predictions of many researchers but IoT did not pierce various industries to that extent.IoT has many security issues which make IoT systems very vulnerable to the attackers.Recently, there have been many DDoS attacks using IoT devices opening the possibility of DDoS attacks on the IoT systems vastly.DDoS attacks have not been able to affect the lives of people directly.But with IoT systems as their target, attackers can cause serious impact on the lives of people.So, the DDoS vulnerability of IoT systems need to be addressed so that proper solutions can be created for IoT.
