How to troubleshoot potential DOS attacks

Too Long; Didn't Read

This tutorial walks you through how I tend to troubleshoot potential denial-of-service issues. There are a plethora of tools at your disposal to monitor issues like these. The end goal is to use a SaaS product that gives you access to logs, metrics, and correlations between them so you can pinpoint where a DOS attack is coming from. Then you can blacklist IPs and stop them from hurting you. It's a huge overhead when you need to multi-task between tools to solve issues like this.
