Google Outsmarts Godzilla-Sized DDoS Attack: A Triumph in Digital Defense
Google morphed into Godzilla’s handler, squashing a record DDoS attack that peaked at 398 million requests per second. This cyber blitzkrieg was halted in its tracks and Google, playing Sherlock, identified and patched the vulnerability. When it comes to cyber attacks, Google proved it’s better to be safe than sorry.
Hot Take:
That awkward moment when you're Google and you've just blocked a DDoS attack so big, it makes Godzilla look like a gecko. I mean, we're talking about a whopping 398 million requests per second here, folks. That's not a typo. But, in true Silicon Valley style, the tech giant not only stopped this cyber monster in its tracks but also found the hole that let it in. Let's just hope they've now firmly slammed that door shut, otherwise, we're all going to need a much bigger digital boat.Already a member? Log in here
