How Dapango Technologies Protects Your Digital Infrastructure Against Threats

Cyberattacks are a constant trending threat that harms us negatively. Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks are particularly harmful. Today, we recognize the importance of safeguarding the resilience of your digital infrastructure against these attacks. That’s why we offer a complete guide on DDoS to help you protect your systems.

What is a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack?

A DDoS attack is a type of cyberattack designed to overwhelm a system, network, or application’s resources, making it inaccessible to legitimate users. The perpetrators seek to cause disruption, damage brand reputation, and sometimes extort money from organizations.

Main characteristics of DDoS attacks

  • Volumetric attacks: These attacks aim to overwhelm the infrastructure with massive fake traffic, draining resources and causing service outages.
  • Lack of resources: These attacks target specific system weaknesses and aim to exhaust resources such as bandwidth, processing power, or memory.
  • Application attacks: These attacks exploit vulnerabilities in web applications to alter their normal functionality and cause failures.
