With the rapid expansion of technology and increasing reliance on web-based service, it has become essential to protect our servers from attacks like Denial of Service (DOS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS).

摘要

With the rapid expansion of technology and increasing reliance on web-based service, it has become essential to protect our servers from attacks like Denial of Service (DOS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS). These attacks, If not fixed with time, can lead to server downtime, degraded performance of the website, and compromised services. A common method of such attacks is overwhelming the server with excessive requests from bad bots, which mimic genuine human behavior. In this context, it is important to differentiate between humans and bots. This paper proposes an effective approach for identifying humans and bots by employing honeypots, behavioral analysis, and request analysis. The keystroke and mouse movement-based model achieves accuracies of 99.98% and 99.72%, respectively, in classifying requests as human or bot.
