This attack overlaps the web based attacks. Webapplications are available assets that attack the surface that are challenged by the agents of threat.The current trend that has been observed is increasing (Catteddu & Hogben, 2015). The threatsthat are related are botnets, data breaches, information leakage, spam and malware.Denial of Service: Denial of Services has created an important aspect in the cyber threatattack. Denial of Services led to infrastructure and services down, extortion and the data breachesthat take place in cyber attack. The current trend that has been observed is increasing. The threats
