D

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS)

A Distributed Denial of Service is an attack using numerous hosts to overwhelm and drown a system, by sending a massive amount of requests of data to a single target, such as a website, a server or a network, causing the target to be disrupted or even crash completely.

DLP

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) refers to a set of strategies, tools, and processes designed to prevent sensitive data from being accessed, shared, or leaked inappropriately, either accidentally or maliciously. DLP solutions monitor and control data transfers across an organization’s network, endpoints, and cloud environments, helping to ensure compliance with privacy regulations and protecting intellectual property and sensitive information from unauthorized access.
