what is Denial of Service Dos Attacks

Denial of Service: prevents or inhibits the normal use or management of communications facilities. This attack may have a specific target; for example, an entity may suppress all messages directed to a particular destination (e.g., the security audit service). 

Another form of service denial is the disruption of an entire network, either by disabling the network or by overloading it with messages so as to degrade performance.
