How to launch a DDOS Attack?
There are numerous tools available to conduct such an attack, but let’s focus on the well-known LOIC tool today.
Low Orbit Ion Cannon (LOIC) was created by 4Chan-affiliated hackers and is intended for website stress tests.
A C# application for denial-of-service attacks and network stress testing is called Low Orbit Ion Cannon. LOIC was initially created by Praetox Technologies but later made available to the public and is now usable on a number of open-source platforms.
Let’s look at this tool’s usage for this.
1. Download the application by looking up LOIC.
2. Get the website you wish to stress test installed.
3. Start the application.
4. After installing the application, turn on the lock using either a direct IP address or a web URL.
