Cloudflare, famous for its cutting-edge anti-DDoS solutions, highlighted the year’s most powerful attack in their annual blog. The target was an East Asian ISP, hit by 13,000 compromised (botnet) devices generating an impressive 5,600 gigabits per second. And this “massive” attack lasted... a whole 80 seconds.
While Cloudflare brags about stopping second-long attacks, let’s talk about IT ARMY’s achievements. Our cyber warriors have been keeping Realcom offline for ten straight days, showing what real persistence looks like. At this point, the swamp’s engineers probably don’t even have enough bandwidth to boil water for their samovars, let alone search for "solutions" on forums.
This wasn’t just a system crash—it was a complete burial under waves of traffic. We’re pretty sure if Cloudflare ever tried to measure our impact, their tools would just throw in the towel.
Join the IT ARMY! The enemy won’t DDoS itself. 😉
