DDoS Attack Testing
DDoS Attack Testing
Purpose
Conduct authorized denial of service testing to assess network resilience and configure intrusion detection systems (IDS) to detect and alert on various DoS attack patterns. This skill covers volume-based, protocol-based, and application-layer attacks using command-line and GUI tools, along with Snort IDS rule configuration for detection.
