This PDF tutorial will examine various denial of service attacks and network defense measures taken against them.
A DoS attack is an attack in which a third party purposely floods a network or website with traffic in order to prevent legitimate access.
A DDoS "occurs when multiple compromised systems flood the bandwidth or resources of a targeted system, usually one or more web servers.
In both cases, system vulnerabilities, hardware and/or software, are exploited to allow an intruder to compromise a system.
Today, DDoS attacks carried out by "botnets", take advantage of multiple compromised personal computers to direct a coordinated attack on a target network.
