An international operating has disrupted four global botnets

A global botnet responsible for a record breaking 31.4 Tbps DDoS attack has been disrupted by an international operation.The Aisuru botnet has been used in numerous record breaking DDoS attacks, including a 15.72 Tbps attack against Microsoft Azure. The KimWolf botnet operated over 1.8 million Android devices.The companies responsible for creating these internet connected devices often do not roll out regular software updates, leaving the devices at risk of being hijacked. For example, the KimWolf botnet was largely made up of smart TV and media devices.Law enforcement from the United States, Germany, and Canada targeted Command and Control (C2) infrastructure, virtual servers, and internet domains used to infect Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Can the world really eliminate denial of servie attacks ?
