Although fluctuations in the number of attacks per quarter are normal, it\u2019s notable that compared to the third quarter of 2023, the number of attacks has increased substantially, by over 35%.<\/p>\n<p>While it remains to be seen if this increase will continue, there are signs that DDoS is becoming an increasingly popular tool among malicious actors and cybercriminals. According to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.enisa.europa.eu\/publications\/enisa-threat-landscape-2024\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Threat landscape report 2024<\/a>\u00a0by the European cybersecurity agency, ENISA, D(D)oS is now the number 1 cyber threat in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>Also notable was that several new variants of attacks were observed in NaWas. These include a new type of DNS request flood attack and a variation of the UDP QUIC flood attack.
