Sub-Saharan Africa continues to experience DDoS attacks, according to Cloudflare.

IT service management company Cloudflare, in partnership with ITWeb, will host a State of DDoS webinar on 19 September 2023 to advise organisations on how best to deal with Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.

Cloudflare says threat actor groups have been targeting organisations in Sub-Saharan Africa, adding that the surge in Killnet, REvil, and Anonymous Sudan, reflects a busy quarter within the DDoS realm.

To fight back, Cloudflare encourages senior cyber security decision-makers to attend the webinar and find out how to automatically detect and mitigate DDoS risk.

This is also an opportunity learn about new state-level capabilities and a new generation of botnets that leverage HTTP/2 and cloud computing infrastructure to launch massive attacks.

Cloudflare cyber security expert and senior solutions engineer, Nupoor Chavan, will cover current and emerging DDoS trends impacting the region.

Together with Chad Toerien, Sub-Saharan Africa lead, Chavan will also demonstrate how to get ahead of DDoS threats, and detail international best practices.

Immediately after presentations, writer and ITWeb Brainstorm contributor James Francis will facilitate a Q & A with Cloudflare experts.
