Threat of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Attacks in Cybersecurity

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are a significant threat to network security, compromising system accessibility by overwhelming servers with excessive traffic. These attacks hinder legitimate users from accessing services, necessitating advanced detection and prevention measures. Techniques such as Federated Learning (FL) and hybrid deep learning frameworks are being explored to enhance cybersecurity responses to these threats.
