SYN Flood

Definition: A DDoS attack that exploits the TCP handshake process by sending a high volume of SYN packets without completing the handshake, exhausting the target’s resources.

Example: An attacker sends millions of SYN packets to a server, each initiating a new connection. The server allocates resources for each half-open connection, eventually running out of resources for legitimate connections.
