Distributed Denial-Of-Service (DDoS) Attacks

Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks are malicious attempts to disrupt the normal functioning of a network, service, or website by overwhelming it with a flood of internet traffic.

You'll learn about different types of DDoS attacks, how they are carried out, and what countermeasures can be employed to mitigate their impact. You'll also gain an understanding of network security principles and protocols, as well as techniques for monitoring and safeguarding digital environments against such threats.
