The paper introduces a GAN‑based framework for detecting DDoS attacks that are designed to evade traditional security systems. It combines Random Forests, Deep Neural Ensembles, and Transformer models trained on the CICDDoS2019 dataset with synthetic adversarial traffic generated by a WGAN‑GP. Experiments show that this hybrid training significantly improves detection accuracy and resilience against unseen adversarial traffic, and real‑world tests confirm its practical effectiveness.

The paper introduces GraphGAN, a Graph-based Generative Adversarial Network designed to detect Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks in next-generation networks. It transforms sequential traffic flows into k‑nearest neighbor graphs, uses a generator to create realistic minority samples, and employs Graph Convolutional Networks for both discrimination and final classification. Experiments on four benchmark datasets demonstrate that GraphGAN outperforms existing methods in accuracy, precision, and recall, especially when data are scarce.

Diff‑DDoS is a three‑phase framework that uses tabular diffusion models to generate realistic cyber‑physical attacks and strengthen DDoS detectors for 5G‑enabled systems. First, a CNN cell‑level detector is trained on call detail record (CDR) grids; second, a tabular denoising diffusion probabilistic model (TabDDPM) learns normal CDR aggregates to synthesize realistic attacks; third, adversarial diffusion training (ADT) iteratively produces hard, distribution‑preserving samples that harden the detector. On the Milano CDR dataset, ResNet50 with ADT achieves near‑perfect F1‑scores across multiple attack scenarios, outperforming existing synthetic‑data methods such as CTGAN.
