Program Explanation Five subtypes of DoS attack: Distributed DoS Distributed reflection DoS Amplified DRDoS Permanent DoS Friendly DoS Distributed denial-of-service (DDos) attack: After identifying the limitations of flooding attacks with single systems, the DDos attack is developed to generate the attacks on multiple systems. DDos attacks mostly occur on the user workstations or Personal computers (PCs). The attacker uses some defect in the operating system or the attacker may gain the access through some common applications and installs their own programs in the system. Distributed reflection DoS (DRDoS) attack: DRDoS tries to attack the uninfected computers called reflectors. The attacker sends the network packet with a spoofed source address to service runs on the network server and the server responds back to this packet by sending it to the spoofed address that belongs to the authentic attack target. Amplified DRDoS attack: Amplification attack is different from the reflector attack and it is used to transmit a packet with spoofed source address to the target system through mediators...
