Exam N10-008 topic 1 question 254 discussion

definitely DDOS as it affects the availability of the website.

Another bad question. Botnet and also arp spoofing can be used for DDoS attacks. So, if I have to choose one I might still choose DDos

The correct answer is D, DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service). A DDoS attack occurs when a large number of devices, typically infected with malware and controlled by an attacker, send a flood of access requests to a website or network, overwhelming its resources and making it unavailable to legitimate users.

A DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack is an attack vector in which a large number of devices send access requests to a website, making it unavailable to respond. In a DDoS attack, the devices used to send the access requests are often part of a botnet, which is a network of compromised devices that are controlled by a single entity. The goal of a DDoS attack is to overwhelm the website with traffic, making it difficult or impossible for legitimate users to access the site. Other attack vectors such as viruses, ARP spoofing, or individual devices sending access requests are not likely to cause the same level of disruption as a DDoS attack.
