43 per cent of all attacks in the quarter were reported in January
The number of DDoS (Distributed Denial-of-Service) attacks dropped by 29 per cent in Q1 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, but increased by 47 per cent compared to Q4 2020, according to cybersecurity firm Kaspersky.
In DDoS attacks, the hackers attempt to deny access to the rightful customers impacting transactions. They are meant to hinder a particular service for genuine users. Hackers send a large number of requests to the target websites, far exceeding their capacity, impairing their ability to function normally.
Spike in January
According to the report, there was an increase in attacks in January – that month accounted for 43 per cent of all attacks in the quarter while the other two months remained quiet.
