How DDoS attacks protection in cloud are one of the most popular methods of hackers on the Internet. A few days ago a similar attack redirected traffic from 1TBps and blocked the Internet in the US and Bulgaria. Experts believe that this technique will become more sophisticated and yet to cause even more damage. They discovered a vulnerability in so-called. Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) protocol, which is used by most servers on the Internet.
HOW DDOS ATTACKS PROTECTION IN CLOUD
In the opinion of experts that can be used by hackers to carry out more large-scale attacks. Study the company Corero shows that the flaw could increase to 55 times the power of such attacks. Recent DDoS attacks using botnets to direct traffic to 620Gbps-1TBps. If their calculations are correct This means that hackers could do with 35TBps, which can cause much more serious damage.
Such a scenario is quite scary because it could block for a long time, access to services such as Twitter, Spotify, Netflix, and Reddit. Bringing more gadgets that support Internet of Things platform also deepens the problem. Experts have yet to develop effective solutions to counter effective to increasingly sophisticated attacks by hackers. We can only hope that they will succeed more quickly to deal with this problem.
