LLMs and RAG enhance DDoS attack detection in SDN

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed a new framework using Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and Large Language Models (LLMs) to detect and mitigate Carpet-Bombing DDoS attacks in Software-Defined Networking (SDN). This approach leverages traffic features, semantic embeddings, and LLM inference for real-time classification without traditional supervised training. Experiments showed high accuracy and stability, with the Gemma-4-31B-IT model configuration yielding the best detection results, demonstrating the integration's effectiveness for adaptive SDN security.
