A form of DoS in which the attack source is more than one, often thousands of, unique IP addresses. A DDoS attack occurs when multiple systems flood the bandwidth or resources of a targeted system. Such an attack is often the result of multiple compromised systems (for example a botnet) flooding the targeted system with traffic.
