Elon Musk announced that X experienced a significant cyberattack attributed to the hacktivist group Dark Storm. This attack disrupted services across the network and was described by experts as sophisticated, hinting at potential nation-state involvement. Security leaders noted that X is under constant cyber threats, going beyond simple denial-of-service attempts to full-scale DDoS assaults, botnet activities, and targeted attacks. The situation remains unclear due to incomplete information surrounding the attack, yet the nature and scale suggest serious concerns for cybersecurity.
"We get attacked every day, but this was done with a lot of resources," Musk stated in the post.
X's engineers understand scalability and redundancy. This isn't incompetence; it's cyberwar hitting at full force.
