Cloudflare

Internet infrastructure company Cloudflare suffered one of the largest volumetric distributed denials of service (DDoS) attacks.

The attack lasted less than 15 seconds and was launched from a botnet of approximately 6,000 unique bots and originated from 112 countries around the world.

The company immediately detected and mitigated a 15.3 million request-per-second (rps) DDoS attack.

The attack was aimed at a “crypto launchpad” which is “used to surface Decentralized Finance projects to potential investors.”
