Recently, the DDoS attack using the amplifier method makes it difficult to distinguish the normal traffic from the normal server and it is difficult to detect even the attack detection. Since the SSDP protocol is a common protocol widely used in IoT devices, it is used as a DDoS amplification attack. In this paper, we analyze the reflector attack of SSDP which is one of the DDoS and suggest a technical proposal to detect and defend against the attack by managing the Mac address of each device. Also, we propose a control structure to protect the reflection attack of SSDP in Home IoT. The efficiency of the proposed system has been verified by performing an experimental attack on the virtual environment.

Since 2015, attacks using the IoT protocol have been continuously reported. Among various IoT protocols, attackers attempt DDoS attacks using SSDP(Simple Service Discovery Protocol), and as statistics of cyber shelters, Korea has about 1 million open SSDP servers. Vulnerable SSDP servers connected to the Internet can generate more than 50Gb of traffic and the risk of attack increases gradually. Until recently, distributed denial of service attacks and distributed reflective denial of service attacks have been a security issue. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to analyze the request packet of the existing SSDP protocol to identify an amplification attack and to avoid a response when an amplification attack is suspected, thereby preventing network load due to the occurrence of a large number of response packets due to the role of traffic reflection amplification.
