      ddos is vaguely related to a supply chain attack in the sense that it can be used as a distraction to implement said chain attack. it was pretty common tactic at one point.

      • disrupt services
      • implement bad library in backups as all focus turns to production
      • destroy production enough to require a restore

      I think this is what they meant, but it’s a stretch.
