A distributed denial of service attack, fondly known as DDoS, has reportedly hit North Korea in early hours of Wednesday, bringing down whole of the connectivity to a near halt. South Korea launched the attack in retaliation for the Kim Jong Un’s fifth missile test conducted a few days ago.
“Nearly all the web and email services in the said nation were shut down by the deluge of web traffic that hit the servers all at once,” said Mr. Junaid Ali, an independent security research from Britain.
