Geopolitical Tensions Drive Explosion in DDoS Attacks
Radware found that Web DDoS attacks rose by 265% in H1 2024, driven by hacktivist groups amid rising geopolitical tensions
The Rise of Packet Rate Attacks: When Core Routers Turn Evil
A sharp increase of DDoS attacks have been observed since the beginning of 2023. A new trend is to send high packet rate attacks though. This article introduces the findings of our teams in order to bring new insights regarding this threat.
CVE-2022-26143: TP240PhoneHome Reflection/Amplification DDoS Attack Vector
A new reflection/amplification distributed denial of service (DDoS) vector with a record-breaking potential amplification ratio of 4,294,967,296:1 has been abused by attackers in the wild to launch multiple high-impact DDoS attacks.
DDoS threat report for 2024 Q1
2024 started with a bang. Cloudflare’s autonomous systems mitigated over 4.5 million DDoS attacks in the first quarter of the year — a 50% increase compared to the previous year.
CVE-2022-26143: TP240PhoneHome Reflection/Amplification DDoS Attack Vector

DSoS attacks statistics and observations
he year 2023 turned out to be quite rich in events and trends in the field of cybersecurity. We witnessed a new term "white noise", the development of artificial intelligence led to increased bot activity, which significantly affected commercial companies. We detected signs of a resurgence in popularity of commercial DDoS attacks. The implementation of "remote office" technologies led to the expansion of communication channels and, as a result, increased intensity of attacks. But first things first. DDoS Attacks by Vectors The fourth quarter of the past year didn't bring any surprises in terms of the distribution of mixed attacks by vectors. UDP flood once again topped the list with a rate of 60.20%. IP flood came in second at 16.86%. Multivector attacks also made it into the top three with 13.36%. Overall, the distribution was as follows: UDP flood - 60.20% SYN flood - 7.26% IP flood - 16.86% Multivector attacks - 13.36%

Understanding and Responding to Distributed Denial-Of-Service Attacks
This joint guide, Understanding and Responding to Distributed Denial-Of-Service Attacks, addresses the specific needs and challenges faced by organizations in defending against DDoS attacks. The guidance now includes detailed insight into three different types of DDoS techniques: Volumetric, attacks aiming to consume available bandwidth. Protocol, attacks which exploit vulnerabilities in network protocols. * Application, attacks targeting vulnerabilities in specific applications or running services.

Microsoft says early June disruptions to Outlook, cloud platform, were cyberattacks
Microsoft says the early June disruptions to its Microsoft’s flagship office suite — including the Outlook email apps — were denial-of-service attacks by a shadowy new hacktivist group. In a blog post published Friday evening after The Associated Press sought clarification on the sporadic but serious outages, Microsoft confirmed that that they were DDoS attacks by a group calling itself Anonymous Sudan, which some security researchers believe is Russia-affiliated. The software giant offered few details on the attack. It did not comment on how many customers were affected.
Switzerland under cyberattack
The Swiss government is under DDoS attacks, but several ransomware gangs have also turned their sights on other Swiss organizations.
Over 18.8 million IPs vulnerable to Middlebox TCP reflection DDoS attacks
We recently began scanning for middlebox devices that are vulnerable to Middlebox TCP reflection, which can be abused for DDoS amplification attacks. Our results are now shared daily, filtered for your network or constituency in the new Vulnerable DDoS Middlebox report. We uncover over 18,800,000 IPv4 addresses responding to our Middlebox probes. In some cases the amplification rates can exceed 10,000!
