What are the Denial of Service attacks and what are possible approaches that attackers may use
to exploit the network so they can succeed
Solution
denial-of-service(DoS) :
It is an attack which is an attempt to make a machine resource unavailable to its users, such as
suspending services of a host connected to the Internet.
5 major DoS Attacks:
1.SYN flood:
A SYN flood is a type of DOS attack in which an attacker sends a series of SYN requests to a
target’s system in an attempt to use vast amounts of server resources.
2. Teardrop attacks:
A teardrop attack involves the hacker sending broken and disorganized IP fragments with
overlapping payloads to the victims machine. The intention is to crash operating systems and
servers due to a bug.
3. Low-rate Denial-of-Service attacks:
The Low-rate DoS attack is designed to exploit TCP’s slow-time-scale. The TCP throughput at
the victim node will be drastically reduced while the hacker will have low average rate thus
making it difficult to be detected.
4. Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) flood:
Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is a connectionless protocol used for IP operations,
diagnostics, and errors. Packets of message can result in a denial-of-service condition for the
target server.
5. Peer-to-peer attacks:
A peer-to-peer (P2P) network is a distributed network in which individual nodes in the network
act as both suppliers and consumers of resources, to the centralized client.
