Stresser (or booter) services provide denial-of-service attack as a service, usually as a criminal enterprise.[1]
They have simple front ends, and accept payment over the web. Marketed and promoted as stress-testing tools, they can be used to perform unauthorized denial-of-service attacks, and allow technically unsophisticated attackers access to sophisticated attack tools.[2] Usually powered by a botnet, the traffic produced by a consumer stresser can range anywhere from 5-50 Gbit/s, which can, in most cases, deny the average home user internet access.[3]
Targets of booter/stresser services include network gaming services.[2][4] Motivations for the use of stresser services include revenge, extortion, and simple mischief.
