The sharp rise in cyberattacks was largely fueled by escalating geopolitical tensions, according to the report, particularly due to Israel\u2019s attacks on Gaza and surrounding countries, turning the region\u2019s digital infrastructure into a battleground for state-sponsored actors and hacktivist groups.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>DDoS attacks, or distributed denial-of-service, work by overwhelming a website, <\/strong><strong>server, or network with a flood of internet traffic from multiple sources<\/strong>, preventing legitimate users from accessing the service.
