The mobile game that Rick has spent the last year developing has been launched, and malicious actors are sending traffic to the server that runs it to prevent it from competing with other games in the App Store. Which of the following types of denial-of-service attack is this?

This is an example of an application distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack, aimed at a gaming application. A network DDoS would be aimed at network technology, either the devices or protocols that underlie networks. An operational technology (OT) DDoS targets SCADA, ICS, utility, or similar operational systems. A GDoS was made up for this question.
