16 lakh bot attacks a minute hit G20 portal as Summit began
Wednesday, 3 January 2024 According to I4C CEO Rajesh Kumar, the 16 lakh bot attacks were part of an attempted distributed-denial-of-service (DDoS) attack. The aim of a DDoS attack is to overwhelm a network by flooding it with superfluous traffic so it can't handle requests from legitimate users. "When you do a DDoS attack, the attacker creates bots and they act on the attackers' behalf. They send multiple requests that the system can't handle," he said, adding they were treating one DDoS attack involving 16 lakh bots as "one security incident".
Prime minister Sir Keir Starmer welcomed the President of Indonesia Prabowo Subianto to 10 Downing Street on Thursday. Mr Subianto, who was inaugurated last month, met the prime minister earlier this week at the G20 leaders’ summit in Brazil.
