TDoS Attacks - The Terrifying Threat To Our Phones

Telephony Denial of Service (TDoS) attacks disrupt telephone systems by overwhelming them with calls, preventing legitimate use. These attacks range from simple automated dialers to sophisticated botnet-based operations, impacting individuals, businesses, and critical infrastructure. Mitigation strategies include developing incident response plans, building system redundancy, and collaborating with service providers. Organizations experiencing TDoS attacks should preserve evidence, document the event, and report it to authorities like the IC3. Several agencies offer resources and guidance on TDoS prevention and response.What is TDoS?: (0:30)Types of TDoS Attacks: (1:10)How TDoS Attacks Work: (2:20)How To Protect Yourself: (3:15)Working With The Experts: (4:00)Cyber Security Assessments: (4:20)What to do if attacked: (5:40)Available Resources: (7:20)Basic Hygiene: (8:45)Cyber Security Awareness: (9:40)Ongoing Training: (13:40)
