🌐✨ International crackdown disrupts DDoS attacks ahead of holiday season. Law enforcement agencies worldwide have launched Operation PowerOFF, successfully seizing 27 popular “booter” and “stresser” websites used for Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks. Coordinated by Europol and involving 15 countries, the operation resulted in the arrest of three administrators and the identification of over 300 users planning attacks. DDoS attacks typically surge during the festive season, causing significant financial and operational damage to victims. In addition to dismantling these platforms, authorities are implementing an online ad campaign to deter potential offenders by highlighting the consequences of such cybercrimes. This comprehensive approach aims to both disrupt current threats and prevent future incidents.
