DDoS attacks need to be addressed.

Hey aG,

If you are receiving DDoS attacks, please contact your local ISP and local police force. This is the only way that we can help. Microsoft cannot help with personal DDoS attacks.

A threat of a ddos attack from someone on xboxlive

As long as I've been alive? Probably not. But anyway what have you been doing the past few decades about DDOS attacks.

Hi there,

in such situation I would advise to report and block the user (and message) via the Tools on your console
Xbox Enforcement | How Do I

Regarding a DDoS attack please see this link for information and what to do if hit offline: https://support.xbox.com/xbox-one/networking/dos-attacks-faq

No other steps are needed, when reported the Enforcement team will check it out, this may take some time though.

If you believe you have been the victim of a targeted DDOS attack, you need to report the player who threatened you. You also need to contact you ISP and let them know you believe you have been DDOS attacked and need them to reset your modem and give you
a new IP address. Doing these things should help you out.

What do expect xbox to do against ddos attacks? Ddos attacks are done via your broadband/internet,they are not done through xbox live so are down to your isp to resolve.https://support.xbox.com/help/Hardware-Network/connect-network/dos-attacks-faq

Threatening to ddos someone via xbox live is a violation of the rules so report anyone doing that.

If somebody is threatening to boot you offline, or is booting you offline then you're likely the victim of a DDoS attack. There's a guide on how to handle the situation at the following link: https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/connect-network/dos-attacks-faq
