РОЗБІР ТА АНАЛІЗ ЗАГРОЗИ ІСНУЮЧИХ ВИДІВ DDOS-АТАК

The evolution of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks into sophisticated Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) threats poses a severe risk to online entities. DDoS attacks, employing botnets, aim not to breach security but to deny authorized users access to websites. These attacks can serve as a smokescreen for other malicious activities and disrupt security measures. DDoS techniques vary, including volume-based, protocol, and application layer attacks. The constant evolution of attack methodologies, from basic scripts to distributed and adaptive strategies, requires advanced monitoring and defense mechanisms. The rise of "service malware" and the expanding attack surface through IoT devices underscore the critical need for scalable defenses against diverse DDoS threats.
