The first two parts cover <strong>availability</strong> attacks — a service being made unreachable or unusable — at levels most people don’t associate with the term “DDoS”: the business level (losing the people who run the service), the social level (manipulating the humans behind it), the informational level (reputational disruption), and finally the technical level most readers expect (network floods, BGP hijacking, Layer 7 exhaustion). The third part is a deliberate step sideways, into application-layer attacks — SQL Injection, Log4Shell, the OWASP Top 10 — that threaten <strong>confidentiality and integrity</strong> instead of availability.</p>
