Protecting your organization against denial of service attacks.: D97-1/80-100-2020E-PDF

"Threat actors carry out denial of service (DoS) attacks to disrupt the availability of an organization’s services and data. If successful, a DoS attack prevents people from accessing online services (e.g. email, websites, online accounts), information, and other network resources. Threat actors carry out DoS attacks (and are sometimes hired to do so) for different reasons, such as attacking for fun or attempting to disrupt a competitor organization or another country’s democratic systems during elections. DoS attacks are also used by hacktivist groups to protest political or social issues"--Page [1].
