denial of service
7月7日のThe Japan Tiemsより。2009年の韓国政府および銀行のサーバーに攻撃をかけその機能を麻痺させた源は北朝鮮もしくはそのシンパである可能性が高いのと調査結果がMcAfeeから出されました。 同様の攻撃は2011年にもありこの両者はほぼ間違いなく同一ソースからの攻撃との事です。 その記事の抜粋：South Korea prosecutors said North Korean hackers were behind the so-called denial-of-servcie attack early this spring, but the North's Ministry of the People' Armed Forces denied it.denila of service とは（Webopediaより）：Short for denial-of-service attack, a type of attack on a network that is designed to bring the network to its knees by flooding it with useless traffic. Many DoS attacks, such as the Ping of Death and Teardrop attacks, exploit limitations in the TCP/IP protocols. For all known DoS attacks, there are software fixes that system administrators can install to limitthedamage caused by the attacks. But, like viruses, new DoS attacks are constantly being dreamed up by hackers.尚、Png of Death and Teardropについての詳細はWebopediaを参照
