I've read what denial of service attacks are (on wikipedia and other sources). I get the general idea that the servers are flooded with requests, and it brings everything to a screeching halt. However, if memory serves that same article noted that DDOS attacks aren't very destructive anymore (in their initial form, anyway). So my [more refined] question is how do these type of attacks manage to get through 'security' and cause 40 minutes of downtime?
