Launching a DDoS attack, even as a test, without explicit authorization from all affected parties is illegal in many jurisdictions. Penalties can include hefty fines and even imprisonment. Always obtain written consent before conducting any DDoS attack test, and strictly adhere to ethical and legal guidelines.
