Riaan Uchungechunge lokuhlaselwa kwe-Didenial-of-service (DDoS) lwavala amawebhusayithi ayisikhombisa ezikhumulo zezindiza zaseJalimane ngoLwesine, osukwini olungemva kwenkinga enkulu ye-IT ezindizeni zaseLufthansa.
URalph Beisel, umphathi jikelele wenhlangano yesikhumulo sezindiza i-ADV yaseJalimane, uqinisekise izehlakalo ezigcwele izikhukhula esitatimendeni esithunyelwe nge-imeyili. Irejistakodwa ayizange icacise ukuthi yiziphi izikhumulo zezindiza ezishayiwe.
“Namhlanje izikhumulo zezindiza zibe yizisulu zokuhlaselwa okukhulu kwe-DDoS,” kusho u-Beisel, wengeza ngokuthi izikhukhula ze-DDoS zenze ukuthi amawebhusayithi ayisikhombisa ezikhumulo zezindiza angatholakali okwesikhashana. “Ngokwazi kwethu, ezinye izinhlelo azithinteki. Akukacaci ukuthi lesi simo sizobhebhetheka kangakanani nakwezinye izindawo. Inhlangano yezindiza i-ADV njengamanje ilungisa umbiko ngesimo.”
Izikhumulo zezindiza eDüsseldorf, Hanover, Dortmund, Erfurt, Nuremberg naseBaden-Baden zithinteke ngenxa ye-bot-traffic tsunami, ngokusho kwe Spiegel, eyabika ukuthi “iqembu laseRussia le-hacktivist” lithole udumo ngokuhlaselwa. Ukuvalwa kwathatha cishe ihora elilodwa kuphela.
Izikhumulo zezindiza ezinkulu eFrankfurt, Munich naseBerlin kubikwa ukuthi azizange zithinteke.
Ukuhlaselwa kwe-DDoS kulandela uchungechunge lwezigameko ze-IT ezithinta imboni yezokundiza yaseJalimane kula masonto ambalwa edlule.
NgoLwesithathu, iLufthansa Group itshele Irejista ibisebenzela ukubuyisela izinsiza ngemuva kwe- udaba lwe-IT olungacacisiwe – ethe idalwe intambo ye-broadband esikiwe – iphoqe inkampani yezindiza ukuba ibambezele futhi ikhansele izindiza.
“Amakhebuli e-Fiber-optic enkampani yezokuxhumana alimele ngesikhathi kusakhiwa eFrankfurt, okudale ukuthi kuphele izinhlelo ze-IT zeLufthansa esikhumulweni sezindiza eFrankfurt,” kusho okhulumela leli hhovisi. “Imisebenzi yendiza kulindeleke ukuthi izinze ekuseni kakhulu.”
Ekupheleni kukaJanuwari, iqembu elizibiza ngokuthi “iRussia engaziwa” lathi linayo Amawebhusayithi e-DDoS’d eyezikhumulo zezindiza eziningana zaseJalimane. Lokhu kuhlasela bekuphendula ithimba le-pro-Kremlin hacktivist i-KillNet ebiza ezingalweni ngemuva kokuthi iJalimane imemezele ukudluliselwa kwamathangi ayi-14 Leopard 2A6 e-Ukraine.
I-KillNet ifune icala lokungqongqoza ngaphezu kweshumi nambili Amawebhusayithi ezikhumulo zezindiza zase-US okungaxhunyiwe ku-inthanethi ngo-Okthoba 10. Nokho, ukuhlasela kwe-DDoS enkulukazi akuzange kuphazamise ukuhamba kwezindiza noma kubangele noma yimuphi umonakalo ekusebenzeni ezikhumulweni zezindiza.
Lezi zigameko ziyanda kuzo zonke izimboni, ngokwengxenye ngenxa yokuthi azibizi futhi zidinga amakhono amancane obuchwepheshe ukuze izigebengu zihoxe. Noma iyiphi ingane yombhalo ene-akhawunti yemali futhi akukho ukuziphatha okungakhokha ukuze idlale.
Ngempelasonto, kusho u-Cloudflare inqwaba yezinkampani bahlaselwe ukuhlaselwa kwe-DDoS, okuhlanganisa nokukhulu kakhulu okwamanje okurekhodiwe.
Leyo tsunami eqopha umlando esekwe ku-HTTP/2 inyuke yafinyelela ezicelweni ezingaphezu kwezigidi ezingama-71 ngomzuzwana, ngaphezu kwerekhodi langaphambili lezigidi ezingama-46. kuvinjiwe yi-Google ngoJuni 2022. Lokhu kuhlasela kwe-DDoS bekungaxhunywanga ne-KillNet, ngokusho kwe-Cloudflare, esole izehlakalo zangempelasonto kubahlaseli abangaziwa. ®
