A denial-of-service (DoS) attack is a cyberattack that disrupts or disables the normal operation of a computer system, network, or website by overwhelming it with a large volume of traffic, requests, or data. DoS attacks can cause system slowdowns, crashes, or downtime, making services unavailable to legitimate users.
