I'm just picturing the perpetrator sitting in their basement, cackling maniacally while they press the 'Unleash DDoS' button. Gotta love the drama of it all!

Ding ding ding! Discrediting or damaging a rival business seems like the most likely goal here. DDoS is a classic way to sabotage the competition.

It's definitely a strategic move to harm the reputation of a rival business.

I think they were trying to make the company look bad in front of customers.

Gaining unauthorized system access? Nah, that's not the point of a DDoS attack. The perpetrator just wants to cause chaos, not infiltrate the system.

I don't think the goal was to steal information. A DDoS attack is about disrupting the service, not gaining unauthorized access to data.

The goal of the perpetrator was clearly to minimize the legitimate users' access. A DDoS attack is all about overwhelming the system and denying service to normal users.

I believe the goal could also be to gain unauthorized system access, to cause further harm.

I agree with Eleni, it seems like the most logical reason for the DDoS attacks.
