Abstract
As information technology has become more advanced, the Internet of things (IoT) has evolved from being a mere concept to becoming a part of everyday life. IoT-based home appliance applications have matured, and numerous relevant software programs have been made commercially available. Therefore, IoT-created security issues have become an issue that must be addressed. Although DoS attacks are one of the most commonly used methods by hackers to attack target hosts, most mainframe computers are equipped with excellent DoS attack prevention and control programs. Nevertheless, most IoT devices do not have high computing power and are thus prone to DoS attacks. Therefore, this study examined the feasibility of using a lightweight, low-rate DoS attack prevention and control program in IoT devices with low computing power. The objective is to enable these devices to prevent and control DoS attacks.
