Organizations Must Develop Zero Trust to Defend Against DDoS Attacks. Here’s Why
In order to survive recent global challenges, many organizations adopted a blend of on premises, work-from-home, and third-party collaborations. This rapid shift to distributed work, along with radical changes in human behavior, is expanding digital risk for organizations and creating new opportunities for malicious actors: according to Forbes, Internet use was up between 50 and 70 percent, and streaming media jumped more than 12 percent in the first quarter of 2020. This surge in Internet consumption – and our heightened dependency on the Internet to work, play, and connect – has also contributed to the rise of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks.
