The number of DDoS attacks more than doubled globally last year, driven largely by geopolitical tensions, with notable surges in attacks on specific countries like Ukraine and Israel.
During the first half of 2024, financial Services and telecoms and ISPs were the most targeted industries, with ISPs being a top target due to their critical role in providing internet services.
The US, Brazil, the UK, and Australia were hit hard by DDoS attacks, with the US being the top target, accounting for nearly half of all application layer attacks.
Imperva identified two new major application layer DDoS attack vectors, including HTTP/2 Rapid Reset and HTTP/2 Continuation Frame Attacks.
