BWI: Akamai Releases Fourth Quarter 2012 ‘State of the Internet’ Report

Akamai Releases Fourth Quarter 2012 'State of the Internet' Report


Bangalore, Karnataka, India, Wednesday, April 24, 2013 -- (Business Wire India) -- -- Nearly 700 million unique IP addresses connected to Akamai Intelligent Platform

-- Reported DDoS attacks grow more than 200 percent year over year

-- Global average peak connection speed jumps 35 percent year over year



Akamai Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: AKAM), the leading cloud platform for helping enterprises provide secure, high-performing user experiences on any device, anywhere, today released its Fourth Quarter, 2012 State of the Internet Report. Based on data gathered from the Akamai Intelligent PlatformTM, the report provides insight into key global statistics including connection speeds, attack traffic, and network connectivity and availability, among many others.

The Fourth Quarter, 2012 State of the Internet Report includes new observations on Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, analysis of Phase II of the Operation Ababil attacks, and examinations of Internet disruptions in Syria, Bangladesh, and Senegal. The report also reviews mobile browser usage by network connection type collected by Akamai IO.


Highlights from Akamai's Fourth Quarter, 2012 Report:

Global Internet Penetration

Nearly 700 million unique IPv4 addresses from 240 countries/regions connected to the Akamai Intelligent Platform - 4.2 percent more than in the third quarter of 2012 and 13 percent more than in the fourth quarter of 2011. Since a single IP address can represent multiple individuals in some cases - such as when users access the Web through a firewall or proxy server - Akamai estimates the total number of unique Web users connecting to its platform during the quarter to be well over one billion.

Quarterly growth among all of the top 10 countries ranged from 1.1 percent in Japan to 5.1 percent in Russia. Among the full set of countries/regions worldwide that connected to the Akamai Intelligent Platform, 75 percent saw a quarterly increase in unique IP address counts.

Year-over-year, the global unique IP address count increased by nearly 10 percent, or more than 71 million, compared to the fourth quarter of 2011. Among the top 10 countries, yearly growth ranged from less than 1 percent in South Korea and Japan (0.2 percent and 0.8 percent, respectively) to double-digit growth rates in Russia (13 percent), China (19 percent), Italy (21 percent) and Brazil (33 percent). Globally, 79 percent of countries/regions had higher unique IP address counts year-over-year.

"Looking back across the year, we observed strong growth of our key connectivity metrics around the world. We believe that this points to greater availability of broadband connectivity, as well as increased speeds on those connections. This is supported as well by the long-term trends observed over the five-year history of the State of the Internet Report," explained David Belson, the report's editor. "This combination of improved broadband availability and higher speeds opens the door for greater innovation in how the Internet is used by both businesses and individuals around the globe."

Attack Traffic and Top Ports Attacked

Akamai maintains a distributed set of unadvertised agents deployed across the Internet that log connection attempts, which the company classifies as attack traffic. Based on data collected by these agents, Akamai is able to identify the top countries from which attack traffic originates, as well as the top ports targeted by these attacks. However, the originating country as identified by the source IP address is not intended to imply attribution. For example, an individual in the United States may be launching attacks from compromised systems in China.

Akamai observed attack traffic from 177 unique countries/regions during the fourth quarter of 2012, down from 180 in the third quarter. China again maintained its position as the single largest volume source of observed traffic at 41 percent of the total, up from 33 percent in the prior quarter. The United States remained in the number two spot despite a drop in observed attack traffic from 13 percent to 10 percent in the third quarter. Turkey took over Russia's number three spot with 4.7 percent.

The top 10 countries/regions generated 75 percent of the observed attack traffic during the quarter. China and the United States were responsible for slightly more than 50 percent of total attack traffic.

Port 445 (Microsoft-DS) remained the most targeted port in the fourth quarter, receiving 29 percent of attack traffic. Port 23 (Telnet) was again second at 7.2 percent.

Observations on DDoS Attacks

For the first time, the report includes insight into DDoS attacks reported by Akamai customers. Data from this quarter's report will serve as a baseline for future comparisons. Akamai customers reported 768 DDoS attacks in 2012, up more than 200 percent from 2011. Of those, 35 percent targeted companies in the Commerce sector and 22 percent focused on Media and Entertainment companies. Enterprise companies, which include financial services, were subject to 20 percent of reported attacks; 14 percent targeted High Tech and nine percent of reported attacks were directed toward Public Sector agencies. The 768 attacks were reported by 413 unique organizations, indicating that many organizations were targeted more than once - some significantly more.

Operation Ababil, Phase II

As highlighted in the third quarter, 2012 report, Akamai was involved in protecting some of the organizations targeted by the "Operation Ababil" series of DDoS attacks. Those attacks continued through October before pausing until December 25, at which point they carried on into January of 2013.

As in the first phase, attackers continued to leverage the BroBot botnet to launch their attacks, and have varied the attacks to evade filtering, primarily through the altering of query strings, user-agents, and targeted URLs. BroBot nodes have been observed sending traffic bursts at a rate of up to 10,000 requests per minute per node, and as many as 18 million attack requests per second.

Global Average and Peak Connection Speeds

Quarter-over-quarter, the global average connection speed rose 5 percent to 2.9 Mbps. Further, a total of 98 countries/regions that qualified for inclusion saw average connection speeds increase from the third quarter of 2012, ranging from 0.1 percent growth in the Netherlands and Luxembourg to 23 percent growth in Côte d'Ivoire.

Year-over-year, average connection speeds grew by 25 percent, with nine of the top 10 countries also demonstrating growth. In fact, only the Netherlands (3.3 percent), Hong Kong (5.4 percent) and Japan (19 percent) reported growth below 20 percent between 2011 and 2012.

Global average peak connection speeds enjoyed a quarter-over-quarter increase of 4.6 percent to 16.6 Mbps. Hong Kong again claimed the highest peak connection speed at 57.5 Mbps, a rise of 6.2 percent from last quarter.

Year-over-year, global average peak connection speeds once again demonstrated significant improvement, rising 35 percent.

Global broadband (>4 Mbps) and high broadband (>10 Mbps) adoption improved by 2.7 and 2.1 percent respectively for the quarter. Global broadband adoption rates rose slightly to 42 percent, while high broadband remained at 11 percent.

Mobile Connectivity

The fourth quarter of 2012 saw average connection speeds on surveyed mobile network operators range from a high of just over 8.0 Mbps to a low of 345 kbps. Eight providers demonstrated average connection speeds in the "broadband" (>4 Mbps) range. Sixty-four more providers delivered average connection speeds greater than 1 Mbps. Data collected by Ericsson shows that mobile data traffic doubled from the fourth quarter of 2011 to the fourth quarter of 2012, and grew 28 percent between the third and fourth quarter of 2012.

Mobile devices using Android Webkit accounted for the largest percentage of requests (35.3 percent) of devices on cellular networks connecting to the Akamai Intelligent Platform. Devices using Apple Mobile Safari represented 32.6 percent. When analyzed across all network types, the ratios were markedly different, with Apple Mobile Safari accounting for 58.7 percent of requests, with Android Webkit responsible for 21.7 percent.

Each quarter, Akamai publishes a "State of the Internet" report. This report includes data gathered from across the Akamai Intelligent Platform about attack traffic, broadband adoption, mobile connectivity and other relevant topics concerning the Internet and its usage, as well as trends seen in this data over time.

BWI: Government Emerges as a Strong Player in the GCC Managed Services Market, Finds Frost & Sullivan

Government Emerges as a Strong Player in the GCC Managed Services Market, Finds Frost & Sullivan
To maximise growth, managed service providers need to overcome concerns related to data security

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Wednesday, April 24, 2013 -- (Business Wire India) -- Governments of the six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states - Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates - have been placing significant emphasis on developing their information and communications technology (ICT) industry. Infrastructure development programmes have focused on transforming these countries into knowledge-based societies.

New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (http://www.ITservices.frost.com), Managed Services Market in the GCC, estimates the market to expand from $1,073.7 million in 2012 to $3,112.7 million by the end of 2018.

The share of the Saudi Arabian and Qatari managed services markets in the GCC region are projected to increase due to the higher pace of growth of managed services in these countries. In terms of verticals, the government and business, financial services and insurance (BFSI) verticals are the key markets for managed service providers (MSPs). However, the highest growth is expected from the IT and oil and gas verticals.

"The GCC states are undertaking national development strategies and chalking out plans that are largely focused on diversifying carbon-based economies and developing knowledge-based societies," noted Frost & Sullivan Information & Communication Technologies Analyst. "Government backed ICT infrastructure development is well underway as a number of e-initiatives are launched."

Governmental entities already generate the highest share of the regional revenue for MSPs. Frost & Sullivan expects the government vertical to remain the leading client of MSPs in the GCC mainly due to the digitisation associated with e-policies and the growth in data centres.

At the same time, the increasing need to focus on core business processes is driving private enterprises to seek outsourced services. Although critical, business data services are not considered to be core to companies' operations. Therefore, third parties are increasingly being allowed to manage business data services.

However, data security concerns remain a major hurdle to market growth.

"The outsourcing culture in GCC countries is very new and enterprises, especially from sensitive verticals such as the BFSI or the government, are still concerned about the security of their data," explained the Analyst. "Therefore, they are reluctant to contract to third parties."

MSPs need to educate clients that they can adopt on-premise models in order to have greater visibility and control over their IT infrastructure. A first step to reassuring clients would be to build up trust, while pitching and delivering quality service on non-core operations such as router or network management.

"To successfully overcome security concerns, MSPs should extensively focus on integrating more robust security enforcement tools such as data encryption," concluded the Analyst. "Once MSPs start offering cloud services, they should consider providing the private cloud solution, rather than the public cloud option, since the former offers better security and latency. The private cloud will definitely have the higher uptake due to security concerns prevalent in the GCC countries."
