Denial of Service attacks are becoming a huge problem on the internet recently because of how easy they are to perform, many online banks and casinos have been attacked because they refused to pay a sum of money to the attacker(s), law enforcement have seen people with more than a gigabyte per second of bandwidth and at the moment the problem seems to be increasing, right now there Is probably someone out there with more than a Terabyte a second of bandwidth, a gigabyte per second is enough to take down servers such as yahoo.com and amazon.com.
