Currently, the life of an ordinary person is associated with all kinds of online services that help not only to increase the speed of obtaining services, but also to the quality of life. It is accepted to pay for comfort and the relevance of the security issues of online services is not in doubt. Inability to use the service leads to moral damage and in some cases to significant material losses. One of the possible violations of the usual work of the web-server can be DOS/DDOS attacks. This scientific article proposes a mechanism for detecting DDOS attacks. To reduce the complexity of intrusion detection, it is proposed to carry out automated monitoring of the state of security of information and telecommunication resources, carrying out on a permanent basis a set of the following activities: a) the analysis of the log files of the web server (an example of the Apache server); b) detection of various parameters from unprocessed requests (used to recognize an incoming request to the web server as “allowed” and “malicious”); с) check each incoming request (its parameters) to the web-server by correlation with the identified parameters from the log files. This stage leads to the detection of a malicious request to the web server, which makes possible a potential DDOS attack
