Topic: DDoS Attacks: The Stakes Have Changed, Have You?
Last month a massive botnet leveraging compromised Internet of Things
(IoT) devices was used to launch sophisticated multi-vector distributed
denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks that made front page news around the
world. IoT botnets are not a new phenomenon, and DDoS attacks have been
making headlines for years, yet many businesses remain under-invested
and ill prepared to defend themselves.
Why You Should Attend
The webinar is ideal for understanding exactly how the stakes have
changed, and what it means for the assumptions organizations have been
making with regard to protecting the availability of their
business-critical websites, services and applications. In light of the
recent attacks, we will expose the multiple attack vectors of the Mirai
IoT botnet and provide best practices for mitigation.
Key Topics for Discussion
-
The evolution of IoT-based DDoS attacks
-
The implications for DDoS defense
-
Current best practices in DDoS defense
