China
The DDoS threat landscape is constantly evolving in China, making it imperative to have ongoing monitoring and analysis in place. NETSCOUT recognizes this and conducts continuous monitoring by utilizing our global threat analysis and collection platform, ATLAS. This allows us to automate country-level analytics and drill down into regional and country-level statistics to identify trends in near real time. The country-level analytics presented on our page include top vectors used in DDoS attacks, top targeted industries, and various benchmarks for the specified period of time, including the largest attack by bandwidth and throughput, most vectors used in an attack, and total attack frequency.
