Abstract :
Aiming at the shortage of existing DDoS attacks defense system, this paper puts forward an effective approach against DDoS attacks based on the three-way handshake process, and the key point lies in discarding the aggressive first handshake requests which consume a lot of system resources; thus it ensures that the new normal network request can be dealt with. An efficient defense system against DDoS attacks is designed, and the experiment results show our approach can improve the whole system´s protection capability against DDoS attacks; what´s more, the system can still keep receiving new network requests.
