Internet Denial -of- Service: Attacks and Defens (eBooks)
KV03105
About this item:
This is a book about Denial-of-Service attacks, or DoS for short. These
attacks aim at crippling applications, servers, and whole networks,
disrupting legitimate users communication. They are performed
intentionally, easy to perpetrate, and very, very hard to handle. The
popular form of these attacks, Distributed Denial-of-Service DDoS
attacks, employs dozens, hundreds, or even well over 100,000
compromised computers, to perform a coordinated and widely distributed
attack. It is immensely hard to defend yourself against a coordinated
action by so many machines.
This book describes DoS and DDoS attacks and helps you understand this
new threat. It also teaches you how to prepare for these attacks,
preventing them when possible, dealing with them when they do occur,
and learning how to live with them, how to quickly recover and how to
take legal action against the attackers.
