Abstract
In this thesis, experimental evaluation of the effect of virtualization on the availability of servers has been performed under Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks for popular server Operating Systems such as Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012 R2 virtualized using Hyper-V. A comparative evaluation of the performance of the servers before and after virtualization under DDoS attacks indicates that after virtualization there is a considerable increase in the vulnerability to attacks and a decline in the performance of the virtualized server compared to when the server is not virtualized.
