It will ask you for the attacker's IP address/adresses and it will report probably to some international security personnel dealing with this. There are cyber laws and attacking dos/ddos you go to jail if caught.

Don't worry they'll backtrace his ass.

It's not always that easy.

you can't track a DDoS attack by the attacking IP's.

You can't. They can.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't DDoS a Distributed-Denial of Service, which often are used by infected hosts that is controlled by the main attacker?
This way, all "they" can trace is the attackers, the infected hosts that most likely have no idea that they are flooding a server, but will never find the original attacker.

The only way you can track them is through the attackers IP. If they are using a VPN or a Proxy, then it can be complicated all after which one they are using.

No.

Let's say I have it setup like this:
My PC -> VPN 1 -> Server 1 -> VPN 2 -> Server 2 -> VPN 3 -> Attack -> Target

They would need to reverse my connection like this:

IP from VPN 3 -> IP from Server 2 -> IP from VPN 2 -> IP from Server 2 -> IP from VPN 1 -> My IP.

Then they would need to contact those who's having the VPNs, if it's not in the U.S. then it will be hard to get the informations out of the company and if the VPN is located in Russia, then they can't at all.

Now let's say all the data between your pc and the servers is also encrypted. Which means they would need to crack the encryption in order to get the data. That would be a hard task as well.
They would need to do that for all your connections.

Not that easy to backtrace.

I know what DoS and DDoS is, do you..? DDoS is often (very so) set up through a bot-net, a group of infected PCs spread all over the world is flooding the target, controlled by the main-attacker. There's no need for any proxy or such in this case, as the target will never be attacked from your IP-address.

On the other hand, you can trace one of the infected hosts and overview connections being made to it (the attacker when he launch an attack), and in this case it would be smart of you to go through a proxy or other.

Why did you ask about it, if you already knew it?

wrong, as Emme said, it's x amount of computers attacking your target, not you. nowhere does any of your information pop up.
