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 Fast Preemptive Robustification (FPR), a lightweight defense that enhances the robustness of deep neural networks against transferable adversarial attacks. By sharpening Laplacian responses through a single 3×3 channel‑wise convolution, FPR eliminates the need for surrogate models, iterative optimization, or specialized training. Experiments show that FPR lowers untargeted attack success rates by 12.7% and reduces targeted attack success from 10.7% to 4.1%.
