Udp Flooder is a Windows utility that can help system administrators test the network security by sending a large amount of requests to the host.

What is flooding

This procedure is more commonly known as the Distributed Denial Of Service, or DDoS attack. When executed simultaneously by a large number of intruders it can paralyze the network and slow down the access to the services. With the help of Udp Flooder users can recreate similar conditions for testing defense capabilities of the system.

It is worth mentioning that this program can not defend from the attacks, only perform them. To secure your system against possible intruders it is recommended to install the antivirus software and mask your real IP address while browsing the web. You can download utilities like Anvi Smart Defender and Hide Your IP Address to do that.

Main functionality

The program offers options for flooding either the UDP or the ICMP protocol. Packet size in bytes can be adjusted as well. You can add a range of ports to attack or select a specific one.

Pinging and tracing options allow users to check the connection status of all IP addresses that are under attack. It is possible to specify the amount of pings that will be performed. Additionally, settings such as request size and timeout are available.
