Targeting a DDoS mitigation company in Western Europe, FastNetMon stopped a huge DDoS attack that peaked at 1.5 billion packets per second Bpps. Using a UDP deluge to overwhelm infrastructure, the attack started with MikroTik routers and IoT devices that had been taken over from 11,000 networks. The threat was eliminated without affecting service thanks to FastNetMons realtime detection and scrubbing technology.

ISPlevel filtering is recommended by FastNetMon to stop future floods. The incident highlights the increasing complexity of DDoS attacks and the pressing requirement for proactive, dispersed defences across international networks. Read More..
