Many Motivations Behind DDoS Attacks
Fact:
Slide17Every Physical Geo-Political Event…
Has a Cyber Reflection…
DDoS Attacks Are The Great Equalizer…
The Cyber Reflection
Slide18Attack targets were not necessarily the events themselves,
but organizations tangentially associated with the events.
Examples of Cyber Reflections

Slide22Recent Dyn Attack
& IoT Botnets
Slide23A floating population of approximately 500,000 compromised IoT devices worldwide (Internet-enabled digital video recorders (DVRs), surveillance cameras).Relatively high concentrations of Mirai nodes have been observed in Asia, Brazil, North America and Europe.
Compromised due to default user name and passwords being enabled on devices and open ports in firewalls (Telnet TCP 23/2323). IoT devices are subsumed into the Mirai botnet by continuous, automated scanning by other compromised Mirai botnet IoT devices.Rebooting the device removes the malware running in memory, but its estimated that it will take less than 10 min to be rescanned and become part of botnet again.
Mirai Botnet
Slide24Mirai is NOT Just a DNS Attack
Mirai features segmented command-and-control, which allows the botnet to launch simultaneous DDoS attacks against multiple, unrelated targets.To date, no verified spoofed DDoS traffic has been observed being sourced from the Mirai botnet. This could change in future versions/variants of MiraiThe code has been released to wild…we are already seeing signs of alteration and attacks using the botnet.
Mirai is capable of launching multiple types of DDoS attacks, including:SYN-floodingUDP floodingValve Source Engine (VSE)query-floodingGRE-floodingACK-floodingPseudo-random DNS label-prepending attacks (also known as DNS ‘Water Torture’ attacks)HTTP GET, POST and HEAD attacks.
Mirai Botnet is
a Multi-vector DDoS Attack

LizardStresser IoT Botnet Targets Brazil
IoT Botnets: More than Mirai
Targets were organizations affiliated with major international sporting events (e.g. gov’t, banks, sponsors, etc.).
Pre-event activity
Never heard of these?
That’s because the defenders were
prepared
.
They had the proper people, products and processes in place well before the event occurred.

Slide33Without the proper knowledge of…DDoS Attack Trends (i.e. Ease,motivations, attack types, relationshipwith data breach)Best Practices in DDoS Mitigation(i.e. Products, People and Processes)Impact to Your Business (i.e. Downtime,loss revenue, mitigation costs etc.)…You cannot accurately calculatethe risk of a DDoS Attack.
Knowledge & Preparation Are the Keys to Protection
