KREBSONSECURITY HIT WITH NEAR-RECORD 6.3 TBPS DDOS

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

KrebsOnSecurity was hit by a huge 6.3 Tbps DDoS attack, likely as a test by a new botnet called Aisuru. The botnet uses hacked Internet of Things (IoT) devices and is linked to a person known as "Forky" who sells DDoS services online. Experts say releasing the botnet's code might weaken its power by creating more, smaller botnets.
