In this MOOC, you will learn the history of DDoS attacks and analyze new Mirai IoT Malware and perform source code analysis. you will be provided with a brief overview of DDoS Defense techniques. You learn an Autonomous Anti-DDoS Network called A2D2 for small/medium size organizations to deal with DDoS attacks. A2D2 uses Linux Firewall Rate limiting and Class Based Queueing, and subnet flood detection to handle various DDoS traffic types. You learn the new Intrusion tolerance paradigm with proxy-based multipath routing for DDoS defense. By developing and deploying such a new security mechanism, you can improve performance and reliability of the system at the same time and it does not have to be just an overhead. By the end of this course, you should be able to analyze new DDoS malware, collect forensic evidences, deploy firewall features to reduce the impact of DDoS on your system and develop strategies for dealing with future DDoS attacks. For the pre-requisites, we recommend the learners take the Design and Analyze Secure Networked Systems course to learn the basic security concepts and principles and take the Secure Networked System with Firewall and IDS courses to learn the basic firewall and IDS systems.

I got to learn many thing regarding Network Security which will help me in future.
UA
It is a wonderful course on DDoS basics and defense techniques.
MB
It was an excellent course, and earning this professional certification has taught me a lot more.
PC
Every cybersecurity expert have to do this course
IC
Mr. Chow is a really good instructor. Definitely worth it.
SK
This course is one of the best course related to Network security. Additional resources were very useful especially the thesis about A2D2 network. Questions are also very nice and conceptual.
AM
Very Good, different approach about DDoS protection behind the scene for what is done by DDoS mitigation solution from different vendors.
FK
Need some updates with different content in the course. Really helpful to understand DDOS Attacks
SR
it was Amazing learning experience . I recommended please enroll the course

unfortunately I did not understand that English dialect.
It was difficult for me to understand what he was talking about. The automatic subtitle does not recognize a lot of words. Most of information in course are outdated.
Mr. Chow is a really good instructor. Definitely worth it.
voice is not clear
Please add some practical task and improve some Docs. like don't add pdf of 170+ pages no one is going to read them ,add as more as Videos
can't understand almost anything because of the difficult dialect..
I am currently in college and my college doesn't have many cybersec courses. This one is great for beginners and is easy to understand if you give it time. Despite getting you used to the terminology used when handling DDoS attacks, it will teach you the methodologies used to mitigate, thwart or tolerate them. It won't teach you step-by-step how to implement those, but it isn't hard to learn it yourself if you're curious enough.
DDoS attacks are a significant threat, overwhelming systems with traffic to disrupt services. Effective defenses include rate limiting, firewalls, and anomaly-based detection. Coordinated efforts and advanced techniques like proxy-based multipath routing enhance resilience. Continuous innovation is crucial to stay ahead of evolving attack strategies.
Explores DDoS attack techniques, case studies (e.g., Mirai botnet), and mitigation strategies. Pros: Real-world attack examples, solid theoretical foundation. Cons: More hands-on labs and simulations would improve learning.
It is a very interesting course. Although most of the materials are quite old, surprisingly, they are still valid. The information is practical and detailed. You can check the Linux commands yourself.
