Explanation

Jude used a spoofed session flood attack to bypass the network protection tools and firewalls used in his company's network infrastructure. This attack technique involves creating forged TCP sessions by sending multiple SYN, ACK, RST, or FIN packets to the target system. By doing so, the attacker can exhaust the target system's resources and make it unresponsive to legitimate In a spoofed session flood attack, the attacker sends packets with a forged source IP address, making it difficult for the target system to distinguish between legitimate and malicious traffic. This makes it easier for the attacker to bypass network protection tools and firewalls, which may be configured to block traffic from known malicious IP addresses.
