Explain how a SYN flood attack works.
Solution
An attacker would send an initial request asking for acknowledgment from the receiving server.
The receiving server would place this in a line with recognizing information, using a small
amount of memory and resources to do so. The server would look forward to a fast return from
its acknowledgment but the attacker would not do so or just not react. The server would wait for
a predefined timeout stage to reject the connection request.
