1.0 What are Denial of Service (DoS) attacks?

Denial of service attacks are simple and usually quite effective. An attacker attempts to overwhelm a service with requests, similar to a 5 year old constantly tugging on his mother's sweater while she is trying to have a phone conversation, you can only do so many things at a time. For example if you have a mail server capable of receiving and delivering 10 messages a second an attacker simply sends 20 messages per second, chances are the legitimate traffic (as well as a lot of the malicious traffic) will get dropped, or the mail server might stop responding entirely. Typically attackers will go for high visibility targets such as the web server, or for infrastructure targets like routers and network links."
