According to a survey conducted in December 2022, more than 67 percent of smartphone users in Japan neither knew the term nor the meaning of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Successful DoS attacks overwhelm network resources by sending a large number of requests, which render certain online services, such as company websites, temporarily unavailable.
