A and C seem plausible, but I believe B is the key factor. Tracing back to the masters and originating machine is the real challenge in a DDoS attack.

I think the correct answer is D, because the dispersed nature of the attack, the need to trace back to the masters and originating machine, and the diversity of the attackers all contribute to the difficulty of performing tracebacks.

Yeah, and not only do we have to find the slaves, but also the masters and the originating machine. It's a complex process.

I agree with Ayesha. It's not easy to trace back to the origin of the attack when the attackers are spread out.

I think tracebacks are difficult in a DDoS attack because of the dispersed locality of the attacking slaves.
