A method that hackers use to prevent or deny legitimate users access to a computer. DoS attacks are typically executed using the DoS tools that send many request packets to a targeted Internet server (usually Web, FTP, or Mail server). The attack floods the server's resources and makes the system unusable. Any system that is connected to the Internet and is equipped with TCP-based network services is subject to attack.

Denial of service (DoS) is a form of attack that prevents users from accessing normal services, such as e-mail and a web server, because the system is busy responding to abnormally large amounts of requests. DoS works by sending enough requests for a system resource that the requested service is overloaded and ceases to operate.
