Respuesta :

The distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is known to be a malicious  attack. Distributed denial-of-service attacks can mostly likely occurred on the original DNS server.

  • Distributed denial-of-service often tires to hinder the normal traffic of the said targeted server, service or network by filling up the target or its environment/ infrastructure with a flood of Internet trash.

The symptom of a DDoS attack is that the site or service will suddenly run slow or become unavailable. Traffic analytics tools can help one to know  the signs of a DDoS attack. DDOS attack can be prevented by  switching DNS servers.
