Low Orbit Ion Cannon (LOIC) is an open-source network stress testing and denial-of-service attack application written in C#.LOIC was initially developed by Praetox Technologies, however it was later released into the public domain [2] and is currently available on several open-source platforms.
Stresser (or booter) services provide denial-of-service attack as a service, usually as a criminal enterprise. [ 1 ] They have simple front ends, and accept payment over the web.
High Orbit Ion Cannon (HOIC) is an open-source network stress testing and denial-of-service attack application designed to attack as many as 256 URLs at the same time. It was designed to replace the Low Orbit Ion Cannon which was developed by Praetox Technologies and later released into the public domain.
Booter may refer to: Self-booting disk , software loaded directly at the bootup of a computer, without the help of an operating system a commercial denial-of-service attack service, commonly known as a booter or stresser
Some botnets use free DNS hosting services such as DynDns.org, No-IP.com, and Afraid.org to point a subdomain towards an IRC server that harbors the bots. While these free DNS services do not themselves host attacks, they provide reference points (often hard-coded into the botnet executable). Removing such services can cripple an entire botnet.
The IP address and host name of the BOOTP server. The IP address of the server that has the boot image, which the client needs to load its operating system. When the client receives this information from the BOOTP server, it configures and initializes its TCP/IP protocol stack, and then connects to the server on which the boot image is shared.
A Smurf attack is a distributed denial-of-service attack in which large numbers of Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packets with the intended victim's spoofed source IP are broadcast to a computer network using an IP broadcast address. [1] Most devices on a network will, by default, respond to this by sending a reply to the source IP ...
A HAIPE is an IP encryption device, looking up the destination IP address of a packet in its internal Security Association Database (SAD) and picking the encrypted tunnel based on the appropriate entry. For new communications, HAIPEs use the internal Security Policy Database (SPD) to set up new tunnels with the appropriate algorithms and settings.
