Study limitations of DoS attackers due to computer resources
Ruiyang Liu · 2023
The advancement of computer technology has facilitated the provision of a wide range of services to customers through computer networks. However, the security of these networks is constantly threatened by malicious actors who employ various means to launch attacks. Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks are a common type of network attack that poses a significant risk to many computer information systems. In this research paper, we aim to investigate how the efficiency of DoS attackers is affected when they have limited computer resources. The findings of our experiments confirm that DoS attackers face challenges in executing efficient attacks when their computers lack sufficient CPU resources. By understanding this limitation, it becomes possible for the targeted entities to choose appropriate defense strategies when faced with such attacks.
