This Tutorial is targeted to attendees with a strong technical background but no exposure to DDOS. It explains what are the parts that break during high performance/high demand events. The tutorial covers most of the prevalent attacks and goes in details for the ones that need detailed explanation. It covers different type of flood attacks, reflection and amplification, as well as application level attacks. It covers concepts like sockets, software architecture, particular details around the TCP protocol as well as some implementation details around the Linux kernel. This tutorial is an update version of the one I did a year ago in Montreal.
