Abstract
Method and system for detecting a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack on a network. The method includes sampling a traffic carried by the network between data processing devices, the traffic comprising data packets transmitted between the data processing devices, determining statistically estimated features of the traffic based on the sampling thereof, executing one or more heuristic algorithm based on the statistically estimated features, the one or more heuristic algorithms being configured to generate a confidence score indicative of a probability that at least some of the data packets constitute a DoS attack and comparing the confidence score with a confidence threshold to determine whether a mitigation order is to be generated.
