Summary
Law enforcement agencies in North America and Germany shut down two major botnets called 'Aisuru' and 'Kimwolf' that were used to conduct DDoS attacks (distributed denial-of-service, where attackers overwhelm websites or apps by flooding them with fake requests). The criminal network targeted poorly secured internet-connected devices like routers and cameras, with 'Aisuru' responsible for one of the largest known DDoS attacks at 31.4 terabits per second.
