The website of Taiwan’s presidential office received an overseas cyber-attack according to Reuters.
Ed Macnair, CEO of Cyber Security Firm, Censornet comments:
“This type of technological protest is on the increase. It’s a technological irritation, but an attack that most organisations recover from. The concerning thing is that the DDoS attack could be a warning shot of future cyber action.
“An autonomous cyber response is needed to raise the bar in cyber protection. By adopting a zero-trust approach, computer systems can be isolated from potential attackers. The introduction of a zero-trust layer can make applications impervious to many forms of network-based attack including scans, vulnerability exploits, DoS, and DDoS attacks.”
