A DDoS attack aims to disrupt the normal operation of a computer network, service, or website by inundating it with a massive influx of internet traffic. The attacker’s goal is to exhaust the target’s resources and prevent legitimate users from accessing it. To carry out a DDoS attack, a criminal leverages multiple compromised computers, known as a botnet. These compromised machines are used to unleash a deluge of requests or data packets towards the target’s server or network infrastructure.
