Fail2Ban can perform multiple actions whenever an abusive IP address is detected: [7] update Netfilter/iptables or PF firewall rules, TCP Wrapper's hosts.deny table, to reject an abuser's IP address; email notifications; or any user-defined action that can be carried out by a Python script.
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.
This basic version of the attack can be customized by using the booster files which follow the VB 6 mixed with VB .NET syntax. In addition, HOIC can simultaneously attack up to 256 domains, making it one of the most versatile tools for hackers who are attempting to co-ordinate DDoS attacks as a group. [12]
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.
Packet flow paths in the Linux kernel.XDP bypasses the networking stack and memory allocation for packet metadata.. The idea behind XDP is to add an early hook in the RX path of the kernel, and let a user supplied eBPF program decide the fate of the packet.
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. [1] It is known to have an interactive console, thus making it a user-friendly tool. [2]
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.
The group has developed a DDoS tool named DDOSIA, which conducts denial-of-service attacks by repeatedly issuing network requests to target sites. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] It is noteworthy that the threat actor appears to collaborate with other pro-Russian cyber collectives, such as Killnet and XakNet.
