Difference between Targeted attack and Target-of-opportunity Attack?
In targeted attacks, only specific IP or particular firms are targeted while in target of opportunity attacks, an attacker sends attack packets randomly to firms and see where those packets can cause of destruction.
An attacker sends a large number of requests to a server from several computers that are located at different geographical locations What is the name for this type of attack?
DDoS
Which type of network attack involves randomly opening many Telnet requests to a router and results in a valid network administrator not being able to access the device?
SYN flooding
A hacker is sending a massive amount of requests to a Web server on a company network Which basic type of attack is occurring?
Denial of Service
Overloading a network to keep users out is considered what?
A denial of service attack. (DoS) This type of attack includes a variety of methods for denying legitimate users access to a network. A Distributed Denial of Service attack (DDos) is more specific type of DoS attack which includes many, mostly infected, devices sending traffic towards a single source to overload the target and prevent normal access.
How do we left to the left of the boom?
attack the network at the root
What happens with Distributed Denial of Service attacks?
It is an assault on a network that floods it with so many requests that it is either slowed or completely interrupted. Unlike a virus, which can cause severe damage to databases, a denial of service attack interrupts network service for a long amount of time.
What floods a computer with requests until it shuts down and refuses to answer any requests for information a Trojan horse ddos attack polymorphic virus or port blocking?
What you are describing is not a type of malware, but a DoS (Denial of Service) attack.
Is denial of service also called a Nuke attack?
No, a Denial of Service (DoS) attack is not the same as a Nuke attack. A DoS attack overwhelms a system, server, or network with excessive traffic or requests, making it unavailable to legitimate users. A Nuke attack is an older type of exploit from the 1990s where attackers sent corrupt or oversized packets to crash a computer or network service. While both disrupt services, they are technically different forms of attack.
What kind of virus floods computers with requests unil it shuts down?
A DDoS attack
What type of attack uses more than one computer to attack the victim?
A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack uses multiple compromised computers to flood a target with traffic, overwhelming its resources and rendering it inaccessible to legitimate users. In this type of attack, a network of infected devices, often referred to as a botnet, is coordinated to send a large volume of requests or data to the victim simultaneously. This collective effort amplifies the impact of the attack, making it difficult to mitigate.
Which type of system attack sends a flood of TCP synchronization requests to a host?
