"Pro-Russia DDoSia Hacktivist Project Sees 2,400% Membership Increase"
The pro-Russia crowdsourced Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) project called "DDoSia" has grown 2,400 percent in less than a year, with thousands of people participating in the launch of attacks against Western organizations. The project was initiated by a pro-Russian hacktivist group known as "NoName057(16)" in the summer of 2022, and it rapidly attracted 400 active members and 13,000 users on its Telegram channel. In a new report published by Sekoia, analysts note that the DDoSia platform has grown significantly over the year, with about 10,000 active members contributing to the project's DDoS attacks and 45,000 subscribers to its main Telegram channel. In addition to the increase in community size, which has resulted in more disruptive attacks, DDoSia has improved its toolset and added binaries for all main operating system platforms, expanding its reach to a larger audience. This article continues to discuss the DDoSia platform experiencing a significant membership increase.
