SoD was in TKD, published in 1985, 11 years before the first DoS attack happened in 1996. 

I always remembered it because of "sodden", which means "saturated with liquid, especially water; soaked through".

SoD.

DoS. Denial of Service, as in DDoS, Distributed Denial of Service, where you get a botnet of computers to FLOOD a network server with more junk packets than it can process, essentially shutting down a Web site or other Internet service.
