DDoS Attack

A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attempt to disrupt the normal traffic of a targeted server, service, or network by overwhelming it with a flood of internet traffic. This type of attack leverages multiple compromised computer systems as sources of traffic, often using botnets to coordinate the assault. The goal is to render the target website or service unavailable to its intended users by exhausting its resources, causing a denial of service. DDoS attacks can cause significant financial loss, damage to brand reputation, and interruptions in online services, making them a serious threat to businesses and organizations of all sizes.
