This type of security assessment is crucial for organizations that rely on e-commerce, online sites, financial transactions, and applications to maintain a constant and uninterrupted online presence. With a DDoS attack simulation, you can ensure the resilience and reliability of your online presence. Comprised of seemingly legitimate and innocent requests, the goal of these attacks is to crash the web server, and the magnitude is measured in Requests per second (Rps). Includes low-and-slow attacks, GET/POST floods, attacks that target Apache, Windows, or OpenBSD vulnerabilities, and more. This type of attack consumes actual server resources, or those of intermediate communication equipment, such as firewalls and load balancers, and is measured in packets per second (Pps). Includes SYN floods, fragmented packet attacks, Ping of Death, Smurf DDoS, and more. The attack’s goal is to saturate the bandwidth of the attacked site, and magnitude is measured in bits per second (Bps). Includes UDP floods, ICMP floods, and other spoofed-packet floods. Types of DDoS techniques that we provide: Volume Based Attacks
They are being used in concert with attempts to penetrate networks and/ or steal data and this is changing the way that businesses have to calculate the risk of loss concerning these types of attacks – as well as the way that counter-measures need to be deployed. DDoS attacks are no longer simply a risk to the availability of an IT system or service. Historically, security specialists have never placed DDoS testing high on the IT agenda, relying mainly on vulnerability assessment and penetration testing as a means of security validation.
