A Gcore report highlights a significant rise in DDoS attacks from Q3-Q4 2023 to Q3-Q4 2024, with a 56% yearly increase and a 17% jump from H1 2024. Notably, attacks in the financial sector soared from 12% to 26% year-over-year while the gaming industry, despite being heavily targeted, saw a decrease in attacks of 31% during H2 2024. Security leaders emphasize the need for enhanced defenses, including network monitoring and incident response planning, to combat increasingly sophisticated threats.
The recent surge in DDoS attacks highlights the growing aggressiveness of cyber threats, which are increasingly difficult to combat with traditional defenses.
Additionally, to effectively counter DDoS threats, businesses must implement network monitoring and regularly analyze network traffic to establish a baseline.
