Low Orbit Ion Cannon (LOIC) is an open-source network stress testing and denial-of-service attack application written in C#.LOIC was initially developed by Praetox Technologies, however it was later released into the public domain [2] and is currently available on several open-source platforms.
R.U.D.Y., short for R U Dead Yet, is an acronym used to describe a Denial of Service (DoS) tool used by hackers to perform slow-rate a.k.a. “Low and slow” attacks by directing long form fields to the targeted server.

Slowloris is a type of denial of service attack tool which allows a single machine to take down another machine's web server with minimal bandwidth and side effects on unrelated services and ports. Slowloris tries to keep many connections to the target web server open and hold them open as long as possible.
High Orbit Ion Cannon (HOIC) is an open-source network stress testing and denial-of-service attack application designed to attack as many as 256 URLs at the same time. It was designed to replace the Low Orbit Ion Cannon which was developed by Praetox Technologies and later released into the public domain.
UDP Flood Attack Tools: Low Orbit Ion Cannon; UDP Unicorn; This attack can be managed by deploying firewalls at key points in a network to filter out unwanted network traffic. The potential victim never receives and never responds to the malicious UDP packets because the firewall stops them.
A proof-of-concept tool, Nkiller2, that demonstrated an attack similar to sockstress was released by Fotis Chantzis aka ithilgore on Phrack ezine. [9] Nkiller2 works completely statelessly, using packet-parsing techniques and virtual states, and exploits an inherent mechanism of TCP, the Persist Timer, thus being able to perform and infinitely ...
