Surveying 17 Anti-Virus Firms on Their Security Practices Allegations that Russian intelligence agents somehow co-opted Kaspersky Lab's anti-virus software, enabling them to search PCs for intelligence, raise questions not just about the security of the Moscow-based security firm's products, but all anti-virus products.

This could send a web server such a significant number of solicitations to serve a page that it crashes under the request, or it could be a database being hit with a high volume of inquiries. The outcome is accessible web transfer speed, CPU and RAM limit moves toward becoming overpowered. DDoS attack symptoms DDoS a
