Keeping pace with the ever-evolving German DDoS threat landscape necessitates ongoing monitoring and analysis to identify how adversaries are changing their tactics and targets. NETSCOUT continually monitors the global threat landscape and scrutinizes regional and country-level statistics to ensure we are up-to-date on near-real-time trends by adversaries. The country-level analytics presented on this page are generated using our global threat analysis and collection platform, ATLAS, and include a variety of benchmarks for the specified time period, such as the top vectors used in DDoS attacks, top targeted industries, largest attack by bandwidth and throughput, most vectors used in an attack, and total attack frequency.
