GorillaBot is a new and advanced botnet that has executed over 300,000 DDoS attacks between September 4 to 27, 2024, targeting over 113 countries, including China and the U.S. It uses a variety of attack vectors, including UDP and TCP ACK floods, and exploits vulnerabilities in devices and systems. The botnet’s sophisticated encryption techniques, linked to the KekSec group, make it highly persistent and difficult to detect, posing a serious threat to critical sectors. Enhanced security measures are essential to mitigate its impact globally.
