*Executive Summary:* Cloudflare successfully mitigated an unprecedented, month-long DDoS campaign that peaked at 3.8 Tbps and 2.14 billion PPS, originating from a large botnet of compromised ASUS/MikroTik routers, DVRs, and webservers (likely exploiting a critical ASUS CVE) and using UDP-based L3/4 volumetric techniques; Cloudflare's global network and traffic filtering prevented major disruption to customers across finance, internet, and telecommunications industries.
