Airdrop 2.0 Vulnerability Detection System

Abstract

In the world of today cyber security has become of upmost importance, it provides a means for protecting vital information that is uploaded to the internet. A vulnerability detection system seeks to detect possible exploits in systems that can be used to harm or steal information. On mobile platforms security is also an issue and various means have been created to combat these security flaws. One of the commonest vulnerabilities know in the world is that of the Denial of Service (DoS) attack, even though they are many ways in which this can be conquered there is no true solution that may work for every platform .This study focuses on the effect of Denial of Service attack on a mobile platform, along with a viable and easily deployable solution. This will give researchers an insight into the security threats that mobile platforms have and also give a solution to be built upon for development of secure applications in the future.

Keywords: Denial of Service, Detection System, Vulnerabilities, Mobile platform.
