Internet infrastructure provider Cloudflare says it fended off a record-breaking DDoS attack that reached a whopping 3.8Tbps.

The attack is even bigger than the 3.47Tbps DDoS that Microsoft encountered in November 2021, the previous record holder. In both cases, the hackers launched a “volumetric” distributed denial-of-service attack, which is designed to consume all the available internet bandwidth of a website or app, exhausting the capacity and forcing it offline.

In Cloudflare’s case, the 3.8Tbps assault was part of a month-long hacking campaign that began early last month, and has so far spanned over 100 especially large volumetric DDoS attacks, with many surpassing 3Tbps.
