## What it is
UFONet is a free, P2P and cryptographic 'disruptive toolkit' written in Python for performing DoS and DDoS attacks at Layer 7 (HTTP) via Open Redirect vectors on third-party sites acting as a botnet, and at Layer 3 via protocol abuse. It also functions as an encrypted DarkNET for publishing and receiving content over a direct-connect P2P client/server network.

## Use cases
- launch layer 7 HTTP DDoS attacks using open redirect zombies
- perform SYN flood and other layer 3 denial of service attacks
- run DNS amplification or NTP monlist attack simulations
- build a P2P botnet network of zombie nodes
- test own infrastructure resilience against DDoS
- publish and receive content over an encrypted darknet P2P network

## When to choose
- you need a multi-vector DoS/DDoS testing toolkit covering many amplification and flood techniques
- you want a P2P-based botnet architecture with cryptographic anonymity features
- you are a security researcher stress-testing systems you own or have consent to test

## When to avoid
- you need a legitimate load testing or benchmarking tool for production capacity planning
- you lack explicit authorization to test the target - attacking without consent is illegal
- you need a supported, licensed product - the project has no license file
