In this Help Net Security video, Mattias Fridström, Chief Evangelist at Arelion, talks about the DDoS threat landscape during 2023.
DDoS attacks reflect significant geo-political challenges and social tensions and have become an increasingly important part of the hybrid warfare arsenal.
In 2022, peak attack traffic in Mega Packets Per Second was up 19% from 2021.
This trend reflects overall Internet traffic growth but is also due to a continuing shift towards fewer but more spectacular attacks.
