Almost every day we experience attacks on the internet. DDOS attacks that kill websites, hacking servers and companies, etc. These attacks have been carried out across countries, because currently with the Internet there are no more borders. Only once in a while is it difficult for us to imagine what the attack might have been like. Now there is a map of the world's cyber attacks. On this map we can see visualization of attacks on the internet in real time. With a very interesting visualization. Quite exciting to see this attack map. Looking at this attack map is like watching a war movie, where there are missiles launched from country to another country.
live cyber attack threat maps in 2019
1. Our favorite real-time worldwide cyber attack map is from Kaspersky Lab. It looks incredibly sleek. In fact, it can easily be a conversation starter at your next party because it also works great on phones. Click "statistics" to easily find lots of details on where the data is coming from and scan the attack rankings for the day.
2. Next, what about the botnet direct threat map? Install classical music to use with this one and you will have your own "show attack" synchronized from real-time botnet attacks around the world.
3. Next is the Fortinet real-time attack map. It may not be the most exciting visually, but there are a couple of cool features that make it unique. The bottom left-hand corner has an easy to understand (and dramatic) cyber attack statistics, and if you look at the map you'll see a day / night map is subtly overlayed onto the cyber attack map. So you can see where bad actors like to work after dark.
4. There's a little more color in our next map from FireEye. Here's what sets this one apart: It is less dramatic with its attack graphics than some of the others, and it also shows the top attacked verticals for the past 30 days.
5. We also discovered Bitdefender's real-time cyber threat map, which claims to show infections and attacks. Plus, its rapid-fire list of attacks drives home the point for non-technical folks.
6. Another really good looking live cyber attack map is from SonicWall, which was pointed out by a SecureWorld reader. We really like the easy to scan analytics at the bottom of the map which shows which countries are the top attack targets right now and the average number of cyber attacks per site for the day, among other things.
7. The last one is what you might call an InfoSec classic. Not only does this cyber threat map include the "pew-pew" sound of video games from the '80s, but it flat out says its data comes from the cloud, including the cumulus cloud! And it translates the attacks it is supposedly tracking into phrases like "it's cyber Pompeii" or "we'll just call it a glitch."
May be useful! ^_^
