Global Cyber Showdown: Indian Hacktivists Strike Back, Neutralizing 10 Pakistani Embassy Websites!
KEY HIGHLIGHTS
Just as the clock struck midnight on May 18th, a high-voltage wave of cyber warfare shook the digital world.

The impacted nations included India, France, Germany, and Kazakhstan, leaving a significant imprint on the digital map.
The Silent Art of War – Understanding DDoS
For the uninitiated, a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attempt to disrupt the normal functioning of a network, service, or website by overwhelming it with a flood of internet traffic. Imagine trying to get a sip of water from a fire hydrant. That’s how overwhelming a DDoS attack can be for a server. It is like being stuck in an ever-growing traffic jam, leading to a gridlock of services.
The Counterblow – A Call to Digital Arms
This massive online assault was not a standalone event but a counter attack. It was the Kerela Cyber Xtractors‘ robust response to the recent DDoS attack launched by a Pakistani hacktivist group, Team Insane PK, that targeted 23 Indian State Police websites.
