Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) cyber threats posted record growth during the three months ended last December, rising over eight times compared to the preceding quarter as online activity intensified ahead of the end-year festivities.
Data from the Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) shows the threats grew from 1.8 million during the quarter ended September to 15.1 million during the period under review, breaking a trend where the volume of DDoS threats had been shrinking for two consecutive quarters.
