About this tag
The iot botnet tag on WindowsForum.com covers discussions about Internet of Things botnets, particularly the Aisuru family of Mirai-variant botnets. Recent threads focus on a record-breaking distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack against Microsoft Azure in October 2025, which peaked at 15.72 Tbps and 3.64 billion packets per second. The attack originated from over 500,000 compromised IoT devices and was automatically mitigated by Azure DDoS Protection without customer downtime. Topics include the technical details of the attack, the evolution of IoT botnets like Aisuru, and the effectiveness of cloud-based DDoS mitigation strategies. The tag is relevant for readers interested in IoT security, botnet threats, and Microsoft's Azure security capabilities.
