A DDoS attack typically involves the use of a botnet, which is a network of infected computers (sometimes referred to as zombies) that are controlled remotely by a hacker. Worms are self-replicating malware that can spread from one computer to another without human intervention, making them a likely candidate for the type of malware used to infect the computers within the company. Neither spyware nor ransomware typically enable remote control of a computer, so they are less likely to be the cause of the attack. Honey pots are decoy systems that are used to trick attackers into revealing their tactics, techniques, and procedures, so they are not relevant to this scenario.
