Threat Score
The Internet Archive was hit by an October 9 DDoS (about 3 hours 20 minutes and ~5 Gbps) that targeted multiple Archive IPs using TCP RST floods and HTTPS application-layer attacks; Netscout observed signs consistent with modern Mirai variants leveraging IoT/home devices, and the incident coincided with a reported leak of ~31 million users' data while the Archive works to restore services.
