Geopolitical attacks, botnets, DDoS-for Hire, AI-powered attacks – the DDoS threat landscape is evolving fast. NETSCOUT’s latest DDoS Threat Intelligence Report reveals over 8 million attacks in just 6 months, highlighting the extent and complexity of these threats.

Watch this presentation with Richard Hummel, Director of Threat Intelligence and co-author author of the report, as he breaks down the attack trends, real-world examples and hacktivist groups driving disruption in Europe, the Middle East, and the Asia Pacific regions.

EMEA/APAC: New DDoS Threat Intelligence Report – Hacktivist Attacks Growing

This webinar will be delivered in English.

In today's connected world, DDoS attacks have become a constant part of our daily lives. Since hacker groups and DDoS-Stresser run highly sophisticated and automated DDoS attacks, monitoring their effectiveness and dynamically adopting attack vectors, the implementation of robust detection and defense strategies paired with a high level of cyber threat intelligence is therefore crucial for successfully strengthening resilience against cyberattacks for organizations worldwide.

In today's webinar you will learn more about global trends, threats and attack methods used by DDoS hackers and how you can protect your organization and services.

An Era of DDoS Hacktivism – Your Roadmap for Detection and Mitigation

This webinar will be delivered in German.

In der vernetzten Welt von heute sind DDoS-Attacken ein steter Begleiter unseres Alltags geworden. Es vergeht kein Tag, wo wir nicht von den erfolgreichen und über Landesgrenzen hinaus sichtbare DDoS Angriffen diverser Hackergruppierungen lesen können. Hackergruppen und DDoS-Stresser führen heute hochentwickelte und automatisierte DDoS-Angriffe durch-, überwachen deren Effektivität und passen Angriffsvektoren dynamisch an. Die Implementierung robuster Detection und Defense-Strategien gepaart mit einer hohen Cyber-Threat Intelligence ist daher entscheidend für eine erfolgreiche Stärkung der Resilienz gegen Cyberattacken für Organisationen weltweit.

In dem heutigen Webinar erfahren Sie mehr über globale Trends, Bedrohungen und Angriffsmethoden von DDoS-Hackern und wie Sie Ihr Unternehmen und Ihre Dienste schützen können.

Die Ära der DDoS Hacktivisten – Globale Angriffstrends und Verteidigungsstrategien

In addition to working towards preventing breaches, cybersecurity leaders and their teams must devote significant resources to planning for an efficient recovery when one happens. That’s because for every day, the organization’s IT systems are down, operational resilience is impacted, and the financial drain worsens. 

So just what should cyber leaders be doing to prepare? What steps can be taken inside cybersecurity, within IT, and then in collaboration with operational units and emergency management to ensure all affected by an outage will be on the same page until the applications come back on? 

In this timely webinar, we’ll speak to leaders who are building an understanding of operations and key relationships that will be required to weather a cyber-outage storm.

Examining Cyber's Role in the Development of Business Continuity Plans that Strengthen Operational Resilience

NETSCOUT ASERT reports that DDoS attack frequency is up 12.8%, with application layer attacks up 43% and volumetric attacks up 30%. With 7.9 million attacks in 6 months, companies need a clear roadmap to fine-tune real-time detection and mitigation strategies to stay ahead of evolving threats.

DDoS Threat Intelligence Report: Latest Threats, Targets, and Defense Strategies

The healthcare sector is currently facing an unprecedented array of cyber threats, growing in complexity and frequency. Malicious actors increasingly target sensitive patient data and critical infrastructure, often through sophisticated techniques like ransomware and phishing. They exploit vulnerabilities in healthcare systems, sometimes lying dormant for extended periods before launching an attack. These attacks are not just about financial gain; they also aim to disrupt healthcare services, risking patient care. 

When cybercriminals infiltrate a network, they move laterally (East/West network traffic) to access more critical systems and data. By focusing on this internal traffic, healthcare providers can detect unusual activities that may signal an ongoing breach.

NETSCOUT is pleased to bring Colin Hung, a leading healthcare technology expert and Editor of Healthcare IT Today, and Sameer Khanna, Sr. Director at NETSCOUT, together to explore these critical issues and discuss how innovative technology solutions can empower healthcare organizations to overcome the challenges.  We will dive into:

• What critical capabilities are required to enable a more proactive approach to cybersecurity?

• What are the technical advantages of a network-based approach to security?

• Conversely, what challenges is a system likely to encounter with poor visibility?

Join us to discover how NETSCOUT can be your partner in navigating the complexities of today's healthcare environment.

A Better Approach to Healthcare Systems Security

In today's rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, sustaining world-class care delivery and fortifying cyber resilience have become central priorities for health systems worldwide. The urgency for a robust technology strategy has intensified as the industry recovers from the financial strain of reduced reimbursements, expense inflation, and cybersecurity challenges.

Over the next 18-24 months, healthcare leaders must focus on strategies that drive revenue through enhanced digital initiatives and ensure a quick recovery from potential cyber threats.

NETSCOUT is pleased to bring David Chou, a leading healthcare technology executive, and Jerry Mancini, Sr. Director at NETSCOUT together to explore these critical issues and discuss how innovative technology solutions can empower healthcare organizations to overcome the challenges. We will delve into:

  • Optimizing digital front-door processes, ensuring a seamless patient experience that drives revenue and improves operational efficiency.
  • Enhancing network visibility and threat-hunting capabilities to enable rapid response and recovery in the face of cyberattacks. 

Join us to discover how NETSCOUT can be your partner in navigating the complexities of today's healthcare environment.

Navigate Healthcare's Dual Challenge: Timely Care Delivery & Cyber Resiliency

Adversaries continue to innovate their DDoS attack tactics and techniques. According to  the latest NETSCOUT DDoS Threat Intelligence report, there has been a 55% increase in Carpet Bombing DDoS attacks around the globe. These attacks are difficult to defend against and can instantly impact large swaths of IP addresses. 
Join us in this 30-minute webinar as we present an in-depth look into the details of a Carpet Bombing attack. Then see how you can use  NETSCOUT Arbor Sightline and Threat Mitigation System (TMS) to effectively mitigate this type of attack.

This webinar will be delivered in English.

Today's DDoS attacks are dynamic, highly sophisticated and are used by cyber criminals in a targeted and consistent manner.  The attacks are executed with great efficiency, while hackers also monitoring the effectiveness of their attacks and dynamically changing attack vectors depending on defensive behaviour and executing attacks cyclically to bypass existing protective measures.

In today's webinar, you are invited to learn more about hacker attack methods and the effectiveness of Adaptive DDoS Defense using a DDoS defense simulation.

Heutige DDoS-Angriffe sind dynamisch, hochentwickelt und werden von den Cyberkriminellen zielgerichtet und konsequent eingesetzt.  Dabei werden die Attacken mit großer Effizienz ausgeführt wobei Hacker auch  die Wirksamkeit ihrer Angriffe überwachen und je nach Abwehrverhalten  Angriffsvektoren dynamisch ändern und Attacken zyklisch ausführen, um bestehende Schutzmaßnahmen zu umgehen.

Sie sind eingeladen im heutigen Webinar mehr über Hacker Angriffsmethoden zu erfahren und gleichermaßen die Wirksamkeit von Adaptive-DDoS-Defense anhand einer DDoS Abwehr Simulation kennenzulernen.
