"Anonymous Sudan DDoS Strikes Dominate Attacks by KillNet Collective"
The capabilities of the hacktivist collective KillNet have grown considerably over the past six months, as its largest affiliate, Anonymous Sudan, claimed responsibility for a wave of Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks. KillNet's affiliates claim that their attacks are ideologically motivated, but the group is widely believed to be aligned with the Russian government. Its attacks, including those against US, Ukrainian, and NATO targets, consistently align with Russia's interests. In a new report published by Mandiant, the threat intelligence firm identified more than 500 different victims that KillNet allegedly targeted with DDoS attacks between January 1 and June 20. This article continues to discuss key findings from Mandiant's report on KillNet.
