The hackers have different motives which could be for Extortion, Exfiltration e.t.c Researchers have employed several methods to prevent L7DDoS intrusion especially using machine learning. Although Machine learning techniques has proven to be very effective with high detection accuracy, the approach still find it difficult to detect Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) based botnet traffic on web server with high false positive rate. The adoption of deep learning based technique using Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) will alleviate this problem. © 2019 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess[No Keyword Available]Conference ObjectQ312351
