Abstract

In the new era of computers, everyone relies on the internet for basic day-to-day activities to sophisticated and secret tasks. The cyber threats are increasing, not only theft and manipulation of someone's information, but also forcing the victim to deny other requests. A DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack, which is one of the serious issues in today's cyber world needs to be detected and their advance towards the server should be blocked. In the article, the authors are focusing mainly on preventive measures of different types of DDoS attacks using multiple IPtables rules and Windows firewall advance security settings configuration, which would be feasibly free on any PC. The IPtables when appropriately selected and implemented can establish a relatively secure barrier for the system and the external environment.
