Are you Denied Access to Any Website or Internet?
A web server goes down. People not able to access it! This is a phenomenon
of recent attacks on a few popular sites and has taken on new dimensions
from the effective Denial of service attacks to DDoS- Distributed
Denial of Service and DRDoS-Distributed reflected denial of service.
Denial of service attacks may be targeting a single system but have
an effect on the entire network. If the internet bandwidth between
server and router is affected then the intranet cannot function. If
DoS and DDoS attack is done on a large scale it can effectively bring
down huge geographical sections of the internet.
