DDoS attacks can cause financial losses and reputational damage to businesses. To assess DDoS risk, a business needs to understand how its infrastructure, applications, and employees may be impacted. Expected annual losses from DDoS are calculated by estimating the potential loss from an attack and the likelihood of an attack. While some studies report thousands of DDoS attacks per year, these numbers are unreliable. Instead, a business should evaluate if it has characteristics, like an online presence or controversial profile, that motivate certain types of attacks.
