DDoS Attack using hping3 | Metasploitable2 | Kali Linux | Wireshark | Colasoft Capsa

In this video, I discuss what a DDoS attack is and how one can implement it. I've used Kali Linux as an attacking machine to implement a SYN Flooding DDoS attack on a locally hosted Metasploitable2 Virtual Machine. hping3 is the tool used. Wireshark has been used to analyze the abundance of packets. Finally, Colasoft Capsa's mitigation techniques have been discussed.
