denial of service (dos) attacks and countermeasures in wireless communications

Denial of service (DoS) attacks are malicious actions carried out to disrupt or disable a wireless communication network, preventing legitimate users from accessing its resources. These attacks overwhelm the network's capacity by flooding it with excessive traffic, invalid requests, or by exploiting vulnerabilities in network protocols. To counteract DoS attacks, wireless communication systems implement various countermeasures, such as traffic filtering, anomaly detection, access controls, and encryption techniques, to ensure the network's resilience and availability against such malicious activities.
