Massive DDoS Attack Leveraged Network Timing Protocol
One of the largest distributed denial-of-service attacks (DDoS) ever seen hit the Internet Feb. 11, cloud security vendor CloudFlare reported.
The target was a CloudFlare customer, and the attack appears to have been just shy of 400G bps, Matthew Prince, the company's CEO, told eWEEK. "We're still gathering data from all our upstream providers to get the exact scale."
