Stability Analysis of an Advanced Persistent Distributed Denial-of-Service Attack Dynamical Model

Stability Analysis of an Advanced Persistent Distributed Denial-of-Service Attack Dynamical Model

The advanced persistent distributed denial-of-service (APDDoS) attack is a fairly significant threat to cybersecurity. Formulating a mathematical model for accurate prediction of APDDoS attack is important. However, the dynamical model of APDDoS attack has barely been reported. This paper first prop...
