Not sure if someone mentioned this but I’m pretty sure DDoS means Distributed Denial of Service, not Diliberate Denial of Service. This is because of it’s nature in that it uses multiple DISTRIBUTED launching points for the attack, whether coordinated by several individuals or via botnet. Good try though… ---
