Explanation / Answer

A simple project idea is simulate a Denial of service attack (DDos Attack).

The idea is that create a simple server, which has to do some heavy computation. Run several client programs which try to connect to server multiple times and thus slowing down the server. You can automate the process by running multiple clients on single machine, or multiple machines.

Any sort of Linux distribution with C socket libraries can be used to demonstrate this project

If it can be successfully shown that multiple clients attempting to slow down or crash the server, then the attack is successfull.
