That's true, William. A Pulse Wave attack seems to be the most effective option for the attacker's objectives.

But Teddy, a volumetric flood attack may not overwhelm the network bandwidth of a major online retailer.

I'm not sure, I think initiating a volumetric flood attack using a single compromised machine could also be effective.

I agree with you, William. A Pulse Wave attack can exhaust the network resources and conceal the attacker's identity.

Haha, ICMP flood? What is this, the stone age? Gotta go big or go home with a Pulse Wave attack. That's the way to really make the retailer's life miserable.

I think the most effective attack strategy would be to leverage a botnet for a Pulse Wave attack.

I dunno, man. A Pulse Wave attack just seems a little too 'out there' for me. Give me a good old-fashioned SYN flood any day. Simple, but effective.

C is the way to go. Botnet-powered Pulse Wave attacks are the new hotness for DDoS. Gotta stay ahead of the curve, you know?

A Pulse Wave attack? Sounds like the perfect way to keep the attacker's identity hidden while causing maximum chaos. I'm impressed by the strategic thinking here.
