Denial of Service Attack (DDoS)

A denial-of-service or DoS is any category of attack in which hackers or attackers endeavor to prevent authentic users from retrieving the service. Within a DoS attack, the hacker or attacker typically sends extreme messages requesting the network or server to validate the requirements that actually have unacceptable arrival addresses, which can overload a system and block even authentic users from being validated to access the service.
