In the digital world, maintaining information is much difficult. Without security measures and controls in place, data might be subjected to an attack. Now a day’s several attacks are evolved & Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) is one of them. There are various categories of DDOS attack.SYN flood is addressed as one of the most dangerous attacks. In three way handshaking method a SYN packet is generated and a received ACK acknowledgement is provided to the corresponding. When the SYN packet is generated continuously from random sourcesis considered as flooding. And it’s known as SYN flood attacks. This paper is constructed with a proposed technique for the betterment of both the detection and defense techniques against it. The detection process is improved by a database added in the server for accepting random flooding for a limited time interval. And the defense algorithm is a developed design operated by scrolling the pending requests from database and checking the accessibility of the user and stop requesting otherwise. There are two parts of this research paper. The first one is to discuss extensively the various aspects of SYN Flood attack and developing the knowledge of this flooding attack mechanisms and the second one is to detect the SYN Flood attack and finding a better mitigation process through which we can reduce the loss of any information that generally happens by this deadly flooding. For saving server from crush it is important to mitigate this attack. So it may prove effective in home appliance servers like IoT, IoE that any of the fraud can't get access into the server for any harmful activity
