Abstract

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks pose a significant threat to city infrastructure, disrupting essential services such as critical infrastrcture, healthcare, and utilities. Traditional mitigation techniques often fail to address the scale and sophistication of modern DDoS attacks. This paper proposes an innovative AI-driven protocol designed to detect, analyze, and mitigate DDoS attacks in real-time. Leveraging machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) algorithms, the protocol adapts to evolving attack patterns and ensures the resilience of smart city infrastructure. Experimental results demonstrate the protocol's effectiveness in reducing attack impact and maintaining service availability. The paper concludes with recommendations for implementation and future research directions.

Dr Pritam Gajkumar Shah, Chair SISTMR Australia

I earned my PhD in Information Sciences and Engineering from the University of Canberra, Australia, in 2011. During my doctoral studies, I was honored to receive three prestigious scholarships: the University President Scholarship, the Auckland University of Technology Scholarship, and the Australian Postgraduate Award. With over 31 years of teaching experience across Australia, India, and New Zealand, I have taught at both postgraduate and graduate levels. I served as a lecturer at the Canberra Institute of Technology in Bruce, Australia, teaching associate degree students affiliated with the Australian National University. In India, I held the position of Regional Officer at the Southern Regional Committee of AICTE, MHRD, Government of India, and was a Professor in Computer Sciences and Engineering at Dayananda Sagar University, Bangalore, prior to relocating to Australia.

I am the Chief Editor of the Australian Journal for Wireless Technologies, Mobility, and Security, which is indexed in the National Library of Australia. My academic contributions include 24 Scopus-indexed publications, 10 Australian patents, and 3 books on wireless sensor network security based on elliptical curve cryptography. My expertise lies in Wireless Networks Security.
