This report summarizes Akamai's findings on the state of the internet during the 3rd quarter of 2008. It discusses attack traffic trends including the top originating countries (China and US) and targeted ports. It also covers security issues like DDoS attacks, website hacks, and newly discovered vulnerabilities. The report examines network outages caused by hurricanes and improvements in global connectivity from new undersea cables and broadband initiatives. Internet penetration metrics like unique IP addresses and connection speeds are analyzed on a global and country level.
Each quarter, Akamai will be publishing a quarterly “State of the Internet” report. This report will include data gathered from across Akamai’s global server network about attack traffic and broadband adoption, as well as trends seen in this data over time. It will also aggregate publicly available news and information about notable events seen throughout the quarter, including Denial of Service attacks, Web site hacks, and network events, including outages
and new connections.
During the fourth quarter of 2008, Akamai observed attack traffic originating from 193
unique countries around the world. The United States and China were the two largest attack traffic sources, accounting for over 42% of observed traffic in total. Akamai observed attack traffic targeted at more than 20,000 unique ports, with the top 10 ports seeing over 77% of the observed attack traffic. Web site hacks and Web-based exploits were regularly in the news
during the quarter, as was a proof-of-concept exploit for a vulnerability in SSL, the underlying mechanism that secures financial and retail transactions, among others, across the Web.
Notable network outages in the fourth quarter were due to submarine cables in the
Mediterranean being severed, as well as two major Internet backbone providers de-peering
their networks from one another. Notable Web site outages in the fourth quarter were
attributed to increased traffic, hardware failure, and power outages.
Global connectivity advanced in the fourth quarter, with the commercial launch or
announcement of WiMAX and 3G broadband services in a number of countries, the launch
of higher speed cable broadband services based on DOCSIS 3.0, and additional fiber-to-thehome services that will bring extremely high-speed connections to subscribers in Switzerland,
Brazil, India, Spain, Italy, and Russia.
Akamai observed a nearly six percent increase (from the third quarter 2008) globally in the
number of unique IP addresses connecting to Akamai’s network, and a 28% increase from
the end of 2007. From a global connection speed perspective, South Korea had the highest
levels of “high broadband” (>5 Mbps) connectivity for the fourth consecutive quarter, and
the highest average connection speed, at 15 Mbps. In the United States, Delaware also
maintained its top position, with 62% of connections to Akamai occurring at 5 Mbps or
greater, and the highest average connection speed in the United States, at 7.3 Mbps. Looking
at observed “narrowband” (<256 Kbps) connections, Mayotte and Equatorial Guinea were
the “slowest” countries, with 98% and 96% of connections to Akamai, respectively, occurring
at speeds below 256 Kbps. In the United States, the District of Columbia continued to have
the highest percentage of observed connections below 256 Kbps. However, this was down
nearly seven percent from the prior quarter, and over 42% from the end of 2007
This document provides a quarterly report on the state of the internet during Q4 2008. It summarizes key findings regarding security threats including:
1) Attack traffic originated from 193 countries, led by the US and China accounting for over 42% of traffic. The top 10 countries made up nearly 72% of traffic.
2) Attacks targeted over 20,000 ports, led by Port 445 (Microsoft-DS) with 22.96% of traffic. Port 80 (WWW) rose to the #2 spot, likely due to SQL injection scans.
3) Notable security events included exploits of SSL vulnerabilities and widespread web site hacks and exploits throughout the quarter.
Akamai's quarterly report analyzed internet traffic data from Q2 2009. They observed attack traffic originating from 201 countries, with China and the US accounting for nearly half. The top targeted port was 445, likely related to Conficker worm activity. Several DDoS attacks targeted DNS infrastructure during this quarter. Global connectivity continued to improve with new cables, wireless networks, and fiber rollouts. Connection speeds and broadband penetration varied by country.

Delivering Critical Information and Services [JavaScript & Friends 2021]Aaron Gustafson
Aaron Gustafson presented on delivering critical information and services during times of crisis. Some key points from the presentation include:
- Access to the internet is essential for participating in the modern world but many people and places still lack access or have unreliable access.
- During times of crisis like natural disasters, the lack of internet access can have severe consequences and exacerbate problems.
- We need to plan for network issues by optimizing websites and applications to work well even on slow or unreliable connections through techniques like using small static files and caching content.
Internet filtering and censorship is common in the Middle East and North Africa region. Governments use a variety of methods to control access including laws restricting media, surveillance of internet cafes, and monitoring of online activity. Internet use is growing due to improving infrastructure and a youthful population, but censorship issues continue as governments block content they deem offensive or threatening and imprison bloggers and journalists. Debate over censorship and online freedoms is ongoing as both advocates and opponents seek to challenge or strengthen controls.
Each quarter, Akamai publishes a quarterly "State of the Internet" report. This report includes data gathered across Akamai's global server network about attack traffic, average & maximum connection speeds, Internet penetration and broadband adoption, and mobile usage, as well as trends seen in this data over time.

Akamai Q1 2012 State of the Internet ReportDavid Belson
This document provides a summary of security metrics observed by Akamai in Q1 2012:
1. China remained the top source of attack traffic at 16%, followed by the US at 11% and Russia at 7%. Attack traffic concentration increased, with the top 10 ports seeing 77% of traffic.
2. Port 445 (Microsoft-DS) saw the largest increase and was the most targeted port, likely due to ongoing Conficker infections. Port 23 (Telnet) and Port 3389 (Terminal Services) also saw increases.
3. In the first half of 2012, Akamai assisted with 89 DDoS attacks primarily targeting American companies from networks in the Americas.
Leading By Example
The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly. - Jim Rohn
The document provides a history of the development of the Internet from the 1950s to the 1990s. It describes how the ARPANET was established by the US military in the 1960s and evolved into a network connecting universities. By the 1980s, TCP/IP was established and the Internet emerged, growing rapidly throughout the 1990s with the development of the World Wide Web and other applications.
The summary of the document is:
1) China remained the top source of observed attack traffic at 16%, followed by the US at 12% and Turkey at 7.6%. Attack traffic concentration among the top 10 ports declined this quarter.
2) Usage of the TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA cipher increased 44% this quarter to 14.8%, while other ciphers like RC4-SHA-128 declined.
3) In June, nearly 10.5 million passwords were disclosed after attackers compromised three websites that were not using proper password hashing techniques.
This document summarizes a study on providing broadband internet access to rural and remote areas, using the case study of Sambisa Forest in northeast Nigeria. It describes Sambisa Forest, which has been affected by violence from Boko Haram insurgents. It proposes using satellite and WiMAX technologies to provide reliable and affordable high-speed internet access to the area. A network would be set up with a central hub connecting to satellite dishes in Sambisa Forest that act as WiFi hotspots, allowing last-mile wireless connections. This would help boost socioeconomic development by bringing internet access to the remote region.
SAMENA Response to Iraq CMC fixed wireless consultationroberto ercole
The document summarizes SAMENA's response to Iraq's Communications & Media Commission regarding proposed fixed wireless broadband licensing and spectrum allocation. Key points:
1. SAMENA believes licenses should allow both fixed and mobile broadband to promote broader access and a viable business case. Restricting licenses to just fixed use may undermine commercial deployment.
2. There may be cross-border interference issues, particularly with neighboring countries using all TDD networks in the 2.6GHz band. Band plans should be harmonized as much as possible to minimize interference.
3. The proposed amount of spectrum for fixed wireless may exceed market needs. A combined mobile/fixed approach could better support broadband access through economies of scale for operators.

Whitepapers Akamai State Of The Internet Q1 2008guest1d6dd0
This document is the executive summary of Akamai's first quarter 2008 "State of the Internet" report. It summarizes key findings about internet attack traffic and broadband adoption from January to March 2008. Attack traffic originated from 125 countries worldwide, with China and the US accounting for 30% of traffic. Major ports targeted were associated with worms from prior years. Notable network outages impacted internet users in different regions. South Korea had the highest broadband connectivity rates globally while Delaware led the US.
This document summarizes key findings from Akamai's State of the Internet Report for Q1 2011. Some key points:
- Myanmar was the top source of attack traffic, accounting for 13% of observed attacks. The US and Taiwan were also in the top 3 sources.
- The top 10 ports accounted for 65% of attacks, down from 72% last quarter. Port 445 saw a decline in attacks while ports 80 and 443 saw large increases.
- Globally there were over 584 million unique IPv4 addresses, a 5.2% increase. South Korea had the highest percentage of connections over 5Mbps.
- On mobile networks, average connection speeds ranged from 163kbps
This document discusses securing next generation mobile networks. It outlines how exploding mobile data usage is straining network capacity and driving operators to adopt new technologies like LTE. LTE will increase speeds but use all-IP networks that introduce new security challenges. The document also examines using wireless offload over public internet to relieve congestion and notes this exposes networks to threats on untrusted internet connections. It proposes using a security gateway to help secure these new network architectures from cyber threats.
This document summarizes Akamai's Q3 2015 State of the Internet report. Some key findings include:
- The number of unique IPv4 addresses observed by Akamai grew by 0.6% to over 808 million. Belgium maintained the highest IPv6 adoption rate at 35%.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?

Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their MainframePrecisely
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

Whitepapers Akamai State Of The Internet Q3 2008

3rd Quarter, 2008
The State of
the Internet
PORT
RE
2. Executive Summary
Each quarter, Akamai will be publishing a quarterly “State of the Internet” report. This report
will include data gathered across Akamai’s global server network about attack traffic and
broadband adoption, as well as trends seen in this data over time. It will also aggregate
publicly available news and information about notable events seen throughout the quarter,
including Denial of Service attacks, Web site hacks and network events, including outages and
new connections.
During the third quarter of 2008, Akamai observed attack traffic originating from 179 unique
countries around the world. China and the United States were the two largest attack traffic
sources, accounting for over 45% of observed traffic in total. Akamai observed attack traffic
targeted at nearly 2,400 unique ports, with the top 10 ports seeing over 85% of the observed
attack traffic. Web site and Internet security were regularly in the news during the quarter, as
several proof-of-concept attack vectors were announced, targeting social networking Web
sites, as well as DNS, BGP and TCP, all core underlying Internet protocols.
Hurricanes Gustav and Ike, which made landfall in the United States in September, caused
Internet outages in the states that they swept through. Notable Web site outages in the third
quarter were attributed to increased traffic, human error and power outages.
Global connectivity saw big advances in the third quarter, with various undersea cable projects
getting underway or nearing completion, the commercial launch of WiMAX services in a
number of countries, and the announcement of fiber-to-the-premises services that will bring
gigabit-speed connections to subscribers in Japan, the Ukraine and the Netherlands.
Akamai observed a nearly ten percent increase globally in the number of unique IP addresses
connecting to Akamai’s network, and this increase may be attributable to more people turning
to the World Wide Web for news and video content related to the Beijing Olympic Games,
which took place in August. From a global connection speed perspective, South Korea had
the highest levels of “high broadband” (>5 Mbps) connectivity for the third straight quarter.
In the United States, Delaware also maintained its top position, with 55% of connections
to Akamai occurring at 5 Mbps or greater. Looking at observed “narrowband” (<256 Kbps)
connections, Mayotte and Equatorial Guinea were the “slowest” countries, with 97% and
94% of connections to Akamai, respectively, occurring at speeds below 256 Kbps. In the
United States, the District of Columbia and Washington State continued to have the highest
percentages of observed connections below 256 Kbps. However, these regions also saw a
significant quarter-over-quarter decline in narrowband connection percentages, down 25%
and 46% respectively as compared to the second quarter.
The “spinning globe” featured in the Akamai NOCC represents where Akamai servers are located and how much traffic they are seeing.
