Prolexic Technologies the global leader in Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection services, now part of Akamai (NASDAQ: AKAM), today issued a high alert threat advisory on NTP amplification DDoS attacks. This attack method has surged in popularity this year, fueled by the availability of new DDoS toolkits that make it simple to generate high-bandwidth, high-volume DDoS attacks against online targets. A complimentary copy of the threat advisory is available at www.prolexic.com/ntp-amplification.
"During the month of February, we saw the use of NTP amplification attacks surge 371 percent against our client base," said Stuart Scholly, SVP/GM Security, Akamai Technologies. "In mtpe, ovf dywbeun hpnxmap da'bo ugju ve msp qmvgcit yhvv gggn vret ydz qzya UQV nnwmskinfvahq zgfxnma."
