Ddos Attack

A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attempt to disrupt the normal functioning of a targeted server, service, or network by overwhelming it with a flood of internet traffic. This is typically achieved by using a network of compromised computers, known as a botnet, to send a massive volume of requests simultaneously, rendering the target unable to respond to legitimate users. DDoS attacks can lead to significant downtime and loss of service for organizations, impacting their operations and reputation.
