Booters with Chinese Characteristics: The Rise of Chinese Online DDoS Platforms
Summary: Cisco Talos identified 32 nearly identical Chinese online DDoS websites, most registered within the past six months and over half hosted on Cloudflare IPs, offering attack interfaces where users select a target's host, port, method, and duration. Talos traced the sites to shared source code sold on Chinese hacking forums, a localized version of code originally written in English, with activation codes priced from about 20RMB for a day to about 400RMB for a month.
What's compelling: One of these sites listed 168,423 attacks carried out by 44,238 users, and the code ships with a blocklist for .gov and .edu targets that administrators can simply modify.
