How Cloudflare Built the Internet's Emergency Room
from The Cybersecurity Podcast with Fexingo: Hacks, Breaches, and Digital Defense Conversations · host Fexingo
When a massive botnet launched one of the largest DDoS attacks ever recorded, most internet infrastructure companies scrambled. But Cloudflare's response was different: they opened their network to any targeted organization for free, absorbing 1.2 terabits per second of attack traffic. Lucas and Luna break down the technical choices Cloudflare made — from Anycast routing to machine learning filtering — and why this incident is reshaping how the industry thinks about collective defense. They also touch on Cloudflare's stock surge this week and what it signals about the future of network security. #Cloudflare #DDoS #Botnet #NetworkSecurity #Anycast #Cybersecurity #Technology #Business #CloudInfrastructure #MachineLearning #EdgeComputing #InternetResilience #ZeroTrust #TechPodcast #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #CyberDefense #DigitalInfrastructure Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
