Question
Which type of cyber attack involves overwhelming a
server with traffic to make it unavailable to users?        ÂSolution
A Denial of Service (DoS) attack overwhelms a target server, network, or service with a flood of traffic, rendering it inaccessible to legitimate users. Attackers aim to exhaust the system's resources, such as bandwidth or processing power, leading to downtime or severe slowdowns. Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks involve multiple machines to amplify the effect. Unlike attacks like phishing or SQL injection, which target data, DoS attacks focus on making services unavailable.
