    Multi-Vector DDoS Attacks Are Becoming the Norm-multi-vector-ddos-attacks-becoming-norm-502416-3.jpg

    Statistics gathered by Neustar, Inc., a provider of real-time information services, shows that in the past year, and especially in the last quarter of 2015, multi-vector DDoS attacks have started to become a regular occurrence.

    Details from the 2016 Neustar Security Operations Center Report reveals that attackers are starting to chain together different methods for launching DDoS attacks, either for reconnaissance, or for diverting company IT resources in different areas, so they can launch other types of attacks later on.

    Multi-vector DDoS attacks are when an attacker quickly transitions from launching DDoS attacks from one form of DDoS attack (e.g.: SYN packets) to another one (Layer 7), and so on. These attacks are either launched one vector at a time, or in parallel, in order to confuse a company's IT department, strain their resources, and keep their attention on the wrong spot.

    Its a wake up call to start researching your modem/router user manual instructions and master the security options to turn on/enable a few options that will stop any ddos attack on any or your investments and perhaps look into a second party firewall and only let what you want in or out transmissions from your device/investments

    The tools are all ready built in your current /modem router take advantage of them and take your time educating your self its not too hard at all.

    Pretty much the same every day though the IP addresses change quite a bit.

    @ztrucker

    Thanks for the upload , brother please disconnect your modem asap your a target and first thing call you isp and make sure you speak to level 2 or a supervisor and explain this report print it out a they will throw you a new ip number

    Don't sit on your hands this is critical you don't know who is attacking you and what is the agenda... your not the first one or last one please run with my advice and get your ip number changed and monitor again

    I think anyone who checks their router logs will see similar. It's prevalent everywhere. I have good security, no one's gotten through yet. When I run port scans, my computer is invisible to the outside world.

    I may send some of my logs to my ISP just to see what they say though, good idea.
