The eighth annual Worldwide Infrastructure Security Report, from security provider Arbor Networks, reveals how both cloud service providers and traditional data centers are under attack. The report examined a 12-month period and asked 200 security-based questions of 130 enterprise and network operations professionals. The key findings follow:
94 percent of data center managers reported some type of security attacks
76 percent had to deal with distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks on their customers
43 percent had partial or total infrastructure outages due to DDoS
14 percent had to deal with attacks targeting a cloud service
