Rate limiting restricts the number of requests a user (identified by IP address, session ID, etc.) can make within a specific timeframe. This prevents attackers from overwhelming the server with a massive burst of requests. By limiting the request rate, rate limiting can effectively mitigate HTTP floods and other application-layer attacks.
