Denial of Service attack.
There are mainly two types of network attacks which are done to harm and put the server down, which are DoS and DDoS attacks.
In DoS or denial of service attacks, there is only one computer which provides with an internet connection, that is used to flood the resource which is targeted.
In DDoS, a resource is targeted and the attack is made by multiple computers and different internet connections.
