AUTOMATIC DETECTION AND MITIGATION OF DENIAL-OF-SERVICE ATTACKS

A method for mitigating network abuse includes obtaining a first set of network traffic messages of network traffic currently received by a network service and determining, via a first model, whether network abuse is occurring based on the first set of network traffic messages. When the network abuse is occurring, the method includes obtaining a second set of current network traffic messages. The method also includes, for each network traffic message in the second set of network traffic messages, labeling, via a second model, the network traffic message as an abusing network traffic message or a non-abusing network traffic message. The method also includes generating, via a third model, at least one network traffic rule. Each network traffic rule, when implemented, reduces an effect of the abusing network traffic messages.
