According to a recent Kaspersky report, DDoS attacks have gotten much worse over the last 12 months.
According to the report:
The average duration of a DDoS attack in Q2 was about 3000 minutes (roughly 50 hours or about 2 days). Compare this with the average of 30 minutes for Q2 2021: the figure has grown hundredfold.
And apparently things will get worse still. “On a global scale, there is a high probability that DDoS activity will intensify,” the report states.
Keep in mind that 95% of attacks are “very short attacks” so the average is drawn upward by exceptional attacks. The report is full of interesting statistics about types of attack, geographic information, and long-term trends.

I'm raindog308, techno polymath and long-time LowEndTalk community Administrator. My technical interests include all things Unix, perl, python, golang, shell scripting, vintage operating systems such as MVS, and relational database systems such as Oracle, PostgreSQL, and MySQL.
I also enjoy using LEBs! I have an empire of little guys for VPNs, larger guys for apps, and big guys for databases and storage. When I'm not in front a screen I'm into German Shepherd dogs, quality knives, target shooting, theology, tabletop roleplaying games, and forest hiking.
