Google has stated that cyber security threats such as distributed vinyl-of-service (DDoS) are increasing rapidly globally. These are hurting business and user confidence of all sizes. The tech giant has revealed that its infrastructure thwarted the high-bandwidth 2.5 Tbps Didos attack in September 2017.

"Despite the targeting of thousands of our IPs at once, the attack had no effect on us," Google said in a statement on Friday.

The attacker exposed 1,80,000 CLADAP, DNS and SMTP servers at 167 Mbps (millions of packets per second) using multiple networks to dodge.

The company went on to say, "This demonstrates the attackers being well-equipped because the attack was 4 times larger than 623 Gbps on the Mirai botnet a year ago. This is the highest-bandwidth bandwidth ever. The attack was. "

Ddos attack unnecessarily disrupts the victim's service by increasing traffic. However this attack does not expose the user's data and also does not ask for compromise. But if the system blockage is not removed quickly, it causes the user's trust to be lost.

Google also said that attackers are constantly developing new technologies to disrupt the system.

Google said it is working with others in the Internet community to identify and eliminate the infrastructure through which these attacks were carried out.
