A Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) is any type of attack where the attackers attempt to prevent legitimate users from accessing the service. In a DDoS attack, the attacker usually sends excessive messages asking the network or server to authenticate requests that have invalid return addresses.

In this article, I will demonstrate how to develop and test Mule custom policy on your local standalone Mule runtime instances before uploading to the API manager or Exchange for live running APIs.
