Study: DDoS Attacks Dominate Global Cyber Threat Landscape
📅 - NETSCOUT recorded over 8 million DDoS attacks globally in the first half of 2025, including 3.2 million across EMEA. Attacks exceeded 3 Tbps in scale and increasingly targeted critical sectors. The research highlights how hacktivists, AI-driven automation, and DDoS-for-hire services are transforming attacks into geopolitical weapons, posing escalating risks for businesses, governments, and service providers.
The report outlines how DDoS attacks, once viewed primarily as a nuisance, have evolved into precision-guided digital weapons capable of destabilizing communications, transportation, energy, and defense sectors. Hacktivist groups such as NoName057(16) coordinated hundreds of strikes [...][... Check source for end of article ...]
📅 - Vertiv Acquires Waylay to Boost AI-Driven Power and Cooling Efficiency - As part of its plan to improve AI-driven power and cooling system monitoring and control, Vertiv has announced the purchase of Waylay NV, a Belgian company that specializes in hyperautomation and generative AI platforms.

Businesses want cloud that's fast, predictable, and supported by engineers who know their stack”— Scott Claeys
DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, August 26, 2025 -- Rad Web Hosting today announced expanded availability of its enterprise-grade hosting and cloud services from its Dallas, Texas operations, delivering high performance, reliability, and hands-on support to organizations across the Central U.S. and beyond. The enhanced portfolio includes high-performance VPS and cloud servers, dedicated servers, managed hosting, and white-label solutions tailored
A 2Tb device with double the capacity of current solutions was created by SK Hynix in order to optimize the cost competitiveness of its new product. The company increased the number of planes, which are independent operation units within a chip, from four to six in order to address possible performance loss in large-capacity NAND. The performance of simultaneous reading is greatly improved and more parallel processing is made possible.
Because of this, the 321-layer QLC NAND performs better and has a larger capacity than earlier QLC devices. The speed at which data is [...]
