Hackers are using encryption to bypass your security controls

By Sabiha Rouksana H. As of today more than half of the web traffic is encrypted. That’s a big win for businesses and all of us, since it guards against eavesdropping and tampering with content as it moves from device to server and back again. Of course this rise in encryption comes with one big, obvious downside. Hackers too now […]

Zwei Drittel mehr Hacker-Angriffe im Jahresvergleich

Zwei Drittel mehr Hacker-Angriffe im Jahresvergleich

Das zeigt der Akamai „State of the Internet“ Sicherheitsbericht für das dritte Quartal.

Im Vergleich zum Vorjahreszeitraum stieg die Anzahl der Hackerangriffe im Netz um 69%.

Wichtige Kennzahlen sind sicher der Anstieg der DDoS-Angriffe (z.B. durch das Miri-Botnetz oder denWireX-Schädling) um 8% allein im Vergleich zum letzten Quartal, die Entwicklung der Angriffe auf Webanwendungen, die im selben Zeitraum um 30% anstiegen und der Einstieg von Deutschland in die Top 5 der Ursprungsländer für IP-Adressen bei DDoS-Attacken (> 55.000).

Das bedeutet u.U., dass IoT-Geräte nicht die erforderliche Absicherung haben und somit als Bots genutzt werden können. Alle Kennzahlen finden Sie in der Akamai-Infografik zum Thema.

DDoS-Angriffe sind auch in unserer Region an der Tagesordnung und können Unternehmen lahm legen – oft gefolgt von einer Zahlungsaufforderung, um künftige Angriffe zu vermeiden – natürlich ohne Gewähr und ohne Rechnung.

Sprechen Sie mit uns über die Möglichkeiten, auf DDoS-Angriffe zu reagieren und nutzen Sie unsere Expertise.
