Please explain DDoS attacks? - Frudu - 04-08-2014 08:19 PM
Exactly what is a DDoS attack?
1) What is ddos attack?
2) What is dos attack?
3) How do you stop/prevent it?
4) How does it work; does it ping a server to death or something else?
5) Does a good router stop it? Something like a Netgear Nighthawk?
6) is it illegal?
Thank you!
