  1. Yesterday, the U.S. Department of Justice announced a coordinated international operation to disrupt four of the world's largest IoT DDoS botnets — Aisuru, Kimwolf, Jackskid, and Mossad — responsible for record-breaking attacks reaching approximately 30 Tbps.

    Together, these botnets had hijacked over three million devices worldwide and launched hundreds of thousands of DDoS attacks against victims across the globe.

    This was a massive collaborative effort involving law enforcement agencies in the U.S., Canada, and Europe, alongside many private-sector partners. We're proud that Nokia was among the companies that contributed — our Deepfield Emergency Response Team helped map botnet infrastructure and supported the takedown efforts.

  2. It's interesting how the operation #PowerOff regularly dominates the #DDoS timeline for their take down of #booter / #stresser services.

    It needs to happen, I agree, and it is great work done by the authorities. But it really leaves an aftertaste, since a couple of weeks later the landscape is back to normal with new services, new domains, same old business model.
