What we know
The authors propose an ant colony-based distributed denial of service (DDoS) detection technique that uses roaming virtual honeypots together with a multi-level secure architecture to collect information about intruders at different levels of the network and to limit the spread of the affected area. Detection relies on ant colony optimisation, using pheromone deposits in the considered area, and on a multi-level IP log table, aiming to reduce traffic overhead and wasted bandwidth.
