What is Flooding?

Understanding Flooding

Flooding refers to a type of cyber attack where a system or network is overwhelmed with a high volume of traffic, causing it to slow down or become inaccessible to legitimate users. This attack, also known as a Denial of Service (DoS) attack, floods the target with an excessive amount of data or requests, disrupting the normal functioning of the targeted system or network. Flooding attacks can be mitigated using specialized tools and techniques such as rate limiting, filtering, and traffic analysis.
