DDosPing2.00

DDosPing is a handy and reliable program that can scan a range of IP addresses in order to detect DDoS programs that might tamper with Internet connections and network performance.DDoS (denial-of-service) refers to a type of attack that can interrupt or suspend a host from connecting to the Internet and most often, is performed on websites which become unavailable to users when such an attempt is successful.In order to identify these attacks, a specialized utility such as DDosPing is required. It relies on a smart algorithm that scans a given IP range in order to detect malicious attacks.The program comes inside a portable package, which works to your advantage, since it doesn’t require installation and won’t write to the system’s registry when you launch it.In terms of appearance, DDosPing doesn’t impress much, but what it lacks in looks compensates through functionality. All you need to do is enter the start and end IP address, adjust the transmission control speed (depending on the speed of your Internet Connection) and press the ‘Start’ button.At this point, the program starts sending UDP and ICMP messages, displaying the infected hosts inside a dedicated area. The scan log can also be saved to an output text file, for later reference.Advanced options are made available inside the Configuration window, where you can set the UDP port, the ping command, as well as the expected reply. There’s also the possibility to impose a maximum duration for the packet transmission.In conclusion, DDosPing comes across as a reliable host ping utility that can identify DDoS attacks for individual IP addresses. It can come in handy for website and network administrators.
