The evolution and development of the technology impacts the nature and conflict of war such as threats emanating from cyberspace. The Distributed Denial-of-service (DDoS) phenomenon poses a serious threat to stability and reliability of the Internet Architecture as long as there is a rise in the internet population. The DDoS attack involving large number of compromised machines affects the legitimacy service to the end-users. In this paper, we have surveyed the ongoing various approaches for mitigating DDoS attacks and operational issues, benchmark challenges and political concerns.
