Controlled DoS

["Tibor Kaskoto" <tibor.kaskoto () cdsys hu>]

Respected Members,

 

Is it possible to do a Denial of Service attack in a controlled way, e.g. in
a penetration testing scenario? How can you control/limit the possible
degradation of the client's services? Can you ask the client to corporate in
terms of IDS/IPS alerts, or any sign of service degradation? How can you
measure the success of the test if you are actually not allowed to break
anything? What is the approach to a 99.99% availability requirement network?

 

 

Thanks & Regards,

 

 

Tibor
