Abstract: After searching for various hacking cases and hacking methods due to the development of the internet of things, this paper examines the characteristics, principles, and composition of DDoS attack, one of the most frequently used hacking methods. After learning about the features of DDoS, this paper explains how to secure using a router. We also look at the functionality and technicality of the router's security, and then explains traffic monitoring and sees what DDoS attacks can be known in advance depending on the amount of incoming system traffic. Subsequently, it is difficult to find where the cause of DDoS attacks originated, as well as there are many problems with subsequent treatment of them, so this paper shares how to block and defend DDoS attacks, and presents analysis and countermeasures.
