In a SYN flood attack, the attacker sends a large number of SYN (synchronize) packets to the target system, overwhelming its resources and causing it to become unresponsive to legitimate requests.
In a normal TCP connection, the three-way handshake involves the client sending a SYN packet to the server, the server responding with a SYN-ACK (synchronize-acknowledge) packet, and the client sending an ACK (acknowledge) packet to complete the connection. However, in a SYN flood attack, the attacker sends a high volume of SYN packets without completing the handshake process. This causes the target system to allocate resources for each incoming SYN packet, eventually depleting its resources and leading to a denial of service (DoS) or distributed denial of service (DDoS) condition.

It's also about preventing unauthorised access to the vast amounts of personal information we store on these devices, and online.
