Everything on the internet runs on systems connected together forming a network of nodes spanning billions of devices. With such networks some parts of networks are segregated for specific purpose or for specific companies, some run special services & apps, some are private and some are public, but with all of these different types of networks means that there will be different types of data. Some reliable and other not so much. In information security, availability plays an important role. It stands for providing specific data to specific authorised people whenever they need in whichever format, they need it. DoS or Denial of Service attacks this very concept. Though DoS has been a problem since 2000, the attacks have only evolved and are still a persistent threat. But what must be considered is that even though the attacks have become way more sophisticated than before, the main concept behind DoS remains the same. Overload a service, app, node or a network with excessive data or traffic and crash it thus rendering it unavailable to users. But this also means in the end it's all about packet signatures which will be at the core of these attacks. This implementation and research work concentrates on capturing & analyzing traffic in a network to compare it with attack signatures to detect a DoS attack and try to block it before it can harm the system. A signature-based detection technique and a customizable IDS was employed.
