In this tutorial the attendees will go over the basics of Denial of Service. It starts with coverage of the different parts of the stack that can be attacked and transitions into a discussion about the most prevalent types of DDoS: reflection attacks, SYN flood, Sloworis, etc. While it covers different attack types, it supplements the attack descriptions with detailed technical explanation of the specific operating system components like sockets, buffers, etc. The class is interlaced with a number of exercises allowing the attendees to manually configure different mitigations. This tutorial focuses on the technologies and not on particular vendor implementation. The duration can be 60-90 minutes.
