Unprecedented DDoS Attack

The Aisuru-Kimwolf botnet launched a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack that reached a record-breaking 31.4 Terabits per second (Tb/s). This volume of malicious traffic is enough to saturate the network infrastructures of entire countries, rendering them inaccessible.

Implications and Countermeasures

Attacks of this magnitude highlight the increasing sophistication and power of botnets. Organizations must implement robust DDoS mitigation strategies, including anomaly detection systems, traffic filters, and the ability to absorb large-scale malicious traffic. Collaboration between Internet service providers and companies is essential to effectively counter these threats.

For those evaluating on-premise deployments, there are trade-offs to consider. AI-RADAR offers analytical frameworks on /llm-onpremise to evaluate these aspects.
