D? More like "Deny Doughnuts to Overweight Sysadmins" am I right?

D is the correct answer. A DDOS attack aims to make the website unavailable by consuming its resources.

I'm going with D. Seems like the most accurate description of what a DDOS attack is trying to achieve.

Definitely D. That's the whole point of a DDOS attack - to overwhelm the server and deny access to legitimate users.

I’m a bit confused because I thought DDoS attacks could also involve spreading malware. But from what I recall, the main intent is to deny access, so maybe it’s D?

I feel like DDoS attacks are more about making a site unavailable rather than changing its content. So, I think D is the right choice, but I could be wrong.

I remember practicing a question like this where the answer was about exhausting resources. I think it was option D, but I need to double-check that.

I think the main goal of a DDoS attack is to overwhelm the site's resources, but I'm not sure if it's just about locking users out or if there's more to it.

I've studied DDOS attacks before, and the goal is definitely to lock users out of the site by exhausting its resources. I'm pretty sure the answer is D.

I'm a little confused by the wording of these options. I know DDOS attacks are meant to make the site unavailable, but I'm not sure if any of these fully capture the intent. I'll have to think about it some more.
