DDoS Attacks Hit NZ Businesses Too
Big banks go offline. Your site could too. This is true for NZ firms.
The Problem for NZ Firms
DDoS attacks stop your site. Your customers can’t reach you. Your sales drop.
Auckland’s Joe’s Cafe had a DDoS attack last year. It lost all online sales for 3 hours.
What This Means
Your site is like a shop door. Hacks lock it. No sales. No customers.
DDoS is a big word. It means too many fake users. They crash your website.
Why Kiwis Should Care
Auckland and Wellington face more attacks. NZISMs now require better defences.
