DDoS Mischief refers to a type of cyberattack where multiple compromised systems are used to flood a target, such as a website or server, with overwhelming traffic, rendering it unable to function properly. The term "mischief" suggests that the intent may not be to cause severe damage but rather to disrupt services, create chaos, or demonstrate power. Such attacks can stem from various motivations, including hacktivism, personal grievances, or even as a form of entertainment among certain groups. While often seen as less harmful than more severe attacks, they can still lead to significant disruptions and financial losses for businesses.
