One of the major concerns in network security that pose a big challenge to safeguarding networks is distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. Such attacks often lead to breaches of trust in online systems, cause significant losses in financial markets, and deny services to legitimate users. This study aims to propose a robust method for detecting DDOS attacks accurately. To accomplish this goal, the study investigated several machine learning algorithms in detecting such attacks utilizing the CIC-DDOS-2019 dat…
