How Bots attack using DDOS

A DDOS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack uses multiple connections to stop access to a website or internet service.

These attacks use many computers to complete the attack. These computers can be PC, Macs, servers, video game consoles, and even smart home devices. The hackers need a device with a security hole like a zero day to install their malware.

With so many devices and people not keeping their devices up to date it’s not difficult for hackers to find what they need.
