Thesis Abstract :

In this thesis, first of all, the terms cyber, cyber warfare, DDoS has been described. There is elaborate explanation on DDoS. Given the increasing use of internet and cyber in modern life, DDoS attacks have been modeled, thus we have tried to understand how DDoS attacks affect the results of a conventional war. In modeling, we used Lanchesters kinetic and mixed warfare models. We analysed the outcomes and paid much attention on how DDoS attacks changed the flow of the conventional war process. The results were presented as graphs and in details, there is also comparative results on graphs.
