2025 DDoS Biannual Report: Law Enforcement Delivers a Blow to Attackers

2025 DDoS Biannual Report: Law Enforcement Delivers a Blow to Attackers

In the first half of 2025, DigiCert’s SOC recorded 15,260 DDoS attacks—an 84% drop from the same period in 2024. This decline reflects both improved threshold tuning to reduce nuisance alerts and shifts in attacker behavior. Global law-enforcement actions, including Operation PowerOff, disrupted DDoS-for-hire services and large botnets, forcing many adversaries into a rebuilding phase with reduced capacity.

In this webinar, DigiCert experts Richard Wallace and Bryant Rump discuss:

  • Key statistics behind the 84% decline in DDoS activity in early 2025

  • How international crackdowns reshaped attacker strategies and botnet operations

  • The rise of shorter, more targeted attacks despite lower overall volumes

  • Practical steps to strengthen defenses against evolving DDoS threats
