Microsoft fights off its BIGGEST EVER DDoS attack after 70k-computer assault from Asia (reports)
Microsoft claim they have blocked its largest ever Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack which targeted a European customer via the company’s Azure service, the Sun US reports.
The attack attempted to flood servers with 2.4 terabytes of data per second for 10 minutes, and apparently came from computers in China, Japan, Malaysia, Vietnam, Taiwan and the US.
It falls just short of the biggest recorded DDoS threat of all time, which targeted Google in 2017.
