DDoS Attack Simulation
DDoS attacks are malicious attempts to overwhelm a target server or network with a flood of traffic, rendering it inaccessible to legitimate users. These attacks can be devastating and can result in lost revenue, reputation damage, and service disruptions. It's crucial to be prepared for such threats.

Volumetric
Volumetric attacks can also be called “floods” because an attack floods a target’s server with requests, like unwanted pings. Attacks are measured in bits per second (bps) or Gigabits per second (Gbps).The concept of a volumetric attack is simple: send as much traffic as possible to a site to overwhelm the server’s bandwidth. Volumetric attacks are typically produced using amplification techniques.
Protocol based
Protocol attacks often work at layers 3 and 4 of the OSI model on network devices like routers. Because they are on the network layer, they are measured in packets per second (pps). sampling of different network-layer DDoS attack types: UDP floods, SYN floods, NTP amplification, DNS amplification, SSDP amplification, IP fragmentation and SYN-ACK floods
Applıcation Layer
Application layer attacks are measured in requests per second (RPS) — the number of requests an application makes. An application layer attack is considered a resource-based attack; therefore, it takes fewer requests to bring down an application because the attack is focused on overwhelming the CPU and memory.
