Microsoft Fends Off 3.47 Tbps DDOS Attack on Azure Servers

[42.304]

A record-breaking 3.47 Tbps DDoS attack on Microsoft servers in Asia is the largest mitigated attack in history. The attack originated from roughly 10,000 sources across the world, Microsoft says. Microsoft also had to deal with another attack in December that was nearly as large at 3.25 Tbps, but lasted far longer. In India alone, Microsoft saw a 30-fold increase in DDoS attacks in October. Microsoft has mitigated 40% more attacks in the second half of the year compared to first half.
