iNyheter Faces DDOS Attack

iNyheter a popular website, has fallen victim to a Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) attack, forcing a temporary shutdown for foreign users.

The ongoing attack has overwhelmed the site’s servers with abnormal traffic, rendering it inaccessible during the specified timeframe. While users in Norway can still access the platform, those with foreign IP addresses are currently barred from entry until the attack is mitigated.

The severity of the DDOS attack highlights the vulnerability of online platforms and underscores the importance of robust cybersecurity measures. For individuals who attempted to access iNews between 1 p.m. and 2:20 p.m. on the specified day, entry was unsuccessful due to the impact of the cyber attack.

DDOS attacks, a prevalent form of cyber threat, involve coordinated efforts to flood a computer, service, or network with an excessive volume of traffic, disrupting normal functionality.

The primary objective is to overload the target’s system resources, hindering its ability to respond to legitimate user requests.

As a response to the DDOS attack, iNyheter has initiated measures to protect its infrastructure and user experience. The decision to temporarily close access for foreign users is a precautionary step to mitigate the impact of the ongoing cyber threat.

The incident serves as a reminder of the ever-present need for vigilance and proactive cybersecurity measures in the face of evolving online threats.
