Cloudflare has confirmed that it suffered a large-scale DNS flood attack on its systems, resulting in widespread disruptions to internet services worldwide. The company’s security team is investigating the incident, which occurred earlier today.
The attack targeted Cloudflare’s DNS servers, causing traffic to be diverted away from the legitimate internet infrastructure and towards malware-laced domains. This led to issues with website access, online applications, and other network-dependent services.
Cloudflare has assured users that it is working closely with law enforcement agencies and cybersecurity experts to identify the perpetrators behind the attack. The company has also taken steps to mitigate the impact of the incident, including implementing additional security measures to prevent similar attacks in the future.
As a result of the incident, some Cloudflare customers may experience brief outages or disruptions to their services. However, the company is committed to minimizing any disruption and restoring normal operations as soon as possible.
We will provide updates on the situation as more information becomes available.
