Method and device for detecting flood attacks
View Patent ↗Disclosed is a flood attack detection method, wherein the total number of keywords of a source packet is acquired, and the number of feature parameters corresponding to the source packet is acquired. A ratio of the number of feature parameters to the total number of keywords is compared with a preset threshold, and if the ratio is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, it is determined that a flood attack occurs.
1. A flood attack detection method, the method being carried out by a computer device having a processor, comprising the steps of:
receiving, by the device, source packets transmitted from a plurality of hosts, wherein the source packets include text content; and
counting, by the device, a total quantity of the received source packets carrying a keyword in a predetermined time to obtain a total quantity of the source packets with the keyword, wherein each received source packet's text content carries the keyword; and
obtaining, by the device, a quantity of a characteristic parameter of the source packets; and
wherein if a ratio of the quantity of the characteristic parameter of the source packets to the total quantity of the source packets with the keyword exceeds or is equal to a preset threshold, it is determined that the flood attack occurs, wherein the characteristic parameter of the source packets is a repetition number of a text hash string in the source packets, and wherein the preset threshold is a similar threshold.
2. The flood attack detection method of claim 1 , further comprising:
obtaining, by the device, the text hash string after hash transformation; and
counting, by the device, the obtained text hash string to obtain the repetition number of the text hash string of the source packets.
3. The flood attack detection method of claim 1 , further comprising:
performing, by the device, keyword feature filtering on the source packets, and the packets left is the source packets carrying the keyword.
4. A flood attack detection apparatus, comprising:
a processor configured to receive source packets transmitted from a plurality of hosts, wherein the source packets include text content;
count a total quantity of the received source packets carrying a keyword in a predetermined time to obtain a total quantity of the source packets with the keyword, wherein each received source packet's text content carries the keyword;
obtain a quantity of a characteristic parameter of the source packets;
compare a ratio of the quantity of the characteristic parameter to the total quantity of the source packets with the keyword with a preset threshold; and
wherein if the ratio exceeds or is equal to the preset threshold, it is determined that the flood attack occurs, wherein obtain the quantity of the characteristic parameter of the source packets, further comprising: obtain a repetition number of a text hash string in the source packets, and wherein the preset threshold is a similar threshold.
5. The flood attack detection apparatus of claim 4 , further comprising:
a storage unit, configured to storage a data table consisting of the total quantity of keywords of the source packets and the quantity of characteristic parameter of the source packets.
