What is a DDoS attack?
money.cnn.com
DDoS, or Distributed Denial of Service, is a common method hackers use to take down websites and services. CNNMoney's Samuel Burke explains what it all means.
This is an example of a team project with quite a bit of overhead. When your web developer is across the country instead of right down the street, costs escalate. It is much more efficient and cost effective to deal with a local developer face to face. Tax dollars = your dollars.
