Summary: | Software-defined networking (SDN) is a new developing technology that has been widely adopted by businesses because of its low cost and greater innovation in
networks specially Scaling or manually configuring
physical infrastructure. This makes it easier to design
networks and manage huge networks. Scaling or manually
configuring physical infrastructure is a problem for older
networks, which cannot keep up with today's rapid
technological advancements. Another important issue is the
lack of information and the absence of a skill set or
experienced experts required with technological expertise,
which is very much concerned about the current situation.
For this reason, a software-defined network architecture
has been developed that allows for a more flexible network
that can be reconfigured to meet changing needs. However,
there are also other security concerns to consider especially the controller’s security. In this paper, we examine the impact of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks on the SDN controller and different mitigation techniques to overcome these attacks. The research effort also points out possible future research on this topic, as well as its limitations. |
