The world is quickly moving towards an era of digitization. Scope and volume of the network are becoming vast that makes these machines more prone to cyber-attack due to vulnerabilities of the network. There are various types of cyber-attacks but most common and equally impactful is DDOS attack. A foolproof defense mechanism is need of the hour. Analysis of various existing defense mechanism frameworks has been done and their shortcomings have been reported by us. This analysis will help to define a framework which can provide better accuracy, lesser detection time and reduced false negative and positive rates. It will further ensure better response and mitigation against the attack.
