Guía teórica-práctica sobre mejores prácticas de seguridad en los principales ataques DoS/DDoS en la capa de control de las redes definidas por Software (SDN) para medianas empresas

Abstract

With the passage of time we can see how the world has globalized and had major changes in technology in different aspects such as communications, virtualization, Big Data, storage systems and of course, name the major changes in mobile devices where 20 years ago there were computers with little processing capacity and regarding their physical appearance were quite large but over time they are becoming smaller from which you can perform various transactions without having to leave home. When studying networks and although they have had several changes in terms of protocols and minor technologies more than 30 years ago there has not been a paradigm shift as significant as the one proposed with the aforementioned Software Defined Networking SDN, which aims to implement dynamic and scalable networks with a centralized administration that divides its configuration into 3 planes: control, data and application. But it also raises many questions as to how vulnerable they can be, given that security is currently one of the most important pillars for companies, due to the constant attacks to which they are exposed and intruders who seek to gain access to company resources and in many cases hijack and encrypt the information to ask for large sums of money in exchange for it.
