9.3
The U.S. Department of Justice announced it disrupted command-and-control infrastructure used by multiple IoT botnets — including AISURU, Kimwolf, JackSkid, and Mossad — in a court-authorized operation conducted with Canadian and German partners and major tech companies. Authorities seized domains, servers and infrastructure tied to botnets that infected over 3 million devices and launched record DDoS attacks up to 31.4 Tbps, aiming to curb global DDoS-for-hire operations.
Scoring Rationale
Official multinational disruption of major IoT botnets yields high impact; limited by article's lack of technical IOC and mitigation specifics.
