DDoS
(Distributed Denial of Service)
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. Unlike a traditional DoS attack, a DDoS attack uses multiple compromised systems to generate traffic.
DDoS attacks can cause significant downtime, leading to financial losses and reputational damage. Mitigation techniques include traffic filtering, rate limiting, and the use of Content Delivery Networks (CDN). Understanding DDoS attacks and implementing robust security measures is crucial for protecting online services and infrastructure.
