Link11 European Cyber Report 2023: DDoS Attacks Surge by 70%
Geopolitical tensions globally contributed to a rapid escalation in DDoS attacks, particularly targeting critical infrastructure, public institutions, and political organizations. The ongoing conflicts, notably between Russia and Ukraine , and in Israel , fueled politically motivated DDoS attacks by organized groups.
The report points out the heightened security risk posed by web applications and APIs, exacerbated by critical vulnerabilities in unpatched software. The EU's mandate for Apple to open its interfaces to third-party providers further intensifies the need for enhanced security measures in this area. Moreover, the rising threat from AI-driven bots presents significant challenges, with projections indicating a 131% surge in online bot fraud by 2027.
"The impact of cyber incidents requires a risk-based, holistic cybersecurity strategy. It's about enabling innovation and growth with secure environments and transforming security concepts into competitive advantages."
