- Let me clarify what a distributed denial-of-service attack is in case you have never come across the term before.arrow_forwardOne person may coordinate a "distributed denial of service attack" (DDoS), which is the name given to this kind of operation. What's your take on it?arrow_forwardWhat is a "Denial-of-Service (DoS)" attack on a network? How does it basically work?arrow_forward
- How does an attack using a DDoS work? Who exactly are the participants? What are the aims of a distributed denial of service attack?arrow_forwardIt's possible that a single individual is behind DDoS attacks, but the mechanics of these attacks are murky at best.arrow_forwardWhat is a distributed denial of service attack and how is it possible for a single person to orchestrate one?arrow_forward
- Only one person can launch a DDoS attack, which is shorthand for "distributed denial of service."arrow_forwardWhat is the distinction between denial-of-service and distributed denial-of-service attacks? Which is the most hazardous? Why?arrow_forwardWhat is a denial-of-service (DoS) attack? Why does a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack pose a more serious threat? Describe the three countermeasures against a distributed denial of service attack.arrow_forward
- What is the difference between a denial-of-service attack and a distributed denial-of-service attack? Which is more dangerous? Why?arrow_forwardGive an example of how a full denial of service attack on a user (in which the user gets no response from the computer) results in a significant issue for that user. Another example is offered in which a 10% denial of service (that is, the user's computation advances but at a 10% slower pace than normal) is a significant issue for that user. Illegal access to a computer system may result in a 10% denial of service attack against legitimate users of that computing system. If so, how would you proceed?arrow_forwardIf a DDoS assault relies on several computers being brought down at the same time, how can a single individual be responsible for its coordination and execution?arrow_forward
