DoS Attack Type
Description
SYN/SYN-ACK
Flooding
The attacker uses a counterfeit IP Address to send TCP request packets
to a Server. Upon receipt of the request packets, the Server responds
with SYN-ACK packets. Since the IP Address is fake, no response is
returned. The Server keeps sending SYN-ACK packets attempting to
reach the counterfeit Host. This attack causes latency on the Network
and can block access to Server resources.
