Welcome to the DDoS Mitigation Project! This repository contains resources and tools aimed at detecting, mitigating, and preventing Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Cyber attacks. The project is designed to help organizations safeguard their network infrastructure from malicious traffic and ensure the availability and security of their services.

Table of Contents Introduction Features Installation Usage Configuration Contributing License Contact Introduction DDoS attacks are a significant threat to online services, causing downtime and loss of revenue. This project provides a comprehensive solution to detect and mitigate such attacks using various techniques and tools. The repository includes scripts, configurations, and documentation to help you set up and manage DDoS protection for your network.

Features Traffic Monitoring: Real-time monitoring of network traffic to identify potential DDoS attacks. Anomaly Detection: Algorithms to detect unusual traffic patterns indicative of DDoS attacks. Rate Limiting: Tools to limit the rate of incoming traffic to prevent overwhelming the server. IP Blacklisting: Automatic and manual blacklisting of IP addresses identified as sources of malicious traffic. Alerting System: Notifications and alerts to inform administrators of potential attacks. Scalability: Designed to scale with your infrastructure, supporting both small and large networks. Installation To get started with the DDoS Mitigation Project, follow these steps:
