can someone help me decipher what this picture means

Hi what are handlers in this particular picture that depitcs cyberattacks
thank you

 

Where did you get that pic from

 

Looks like a diagram of DDoS attack.

 

I agree with the DDos assessment. Appears the "handlers" in the diagram are the botnet servers the attacker is using to connect to its compromised devices to launch the attack.

 

+1. definitely.

 

thank you
