Performance Analysis of Denial of Service DoS and Distributed DoS Attack of Application and Network Layer of IoT

Abstract

Internet of Things (IoT) is a new revolution that makes use of internet services to connect the whole world anywhere and anytime without the restriction of geographic location. It provides a platform to communicate between the objects, which are self-organize, recognize themselves using (RFID) Radio frequency identification, Zig Bee and Wireless sensor network etc. for effective communication. The unique characteristics of this technology provides dynamic nature, connectivity, enormous scale, heterogeneity, sensing energy, etc., which has the capability to enhance various innovative applications and services. However, IoT architecture provides complex environment that has various challenging issues such as connectivity, power, security etc., which need to be solved. The successful adoption of IoT largely depends upon security issue, which protects the user's personal data from the real-time threats. However, several security mechanisms are already in use in traditional network are no longer sufficient to protect the future generation IoT. This paper analysis the Denial of Service and DDoS attack of application and network layer of IoT. Moreover, this paper also analyze the performance with various metrics delay, number of packets lost, routing metrics that can degrade the performance of the IoT.
