When it comes to real-time cyber-attack maps, some are funny, some seem ominous, and all of them tell a story that words alone cannot: cyber attacks never stop.

Cyber Attack Threat Maps

  1. Our favorite real-time worldwide cyber attack map is from Kaspersky Lab. It looks incredibly sleek. In fact, it can easily be a conversation starter at your next party because it also works great on phones. Click “statistics” to easily find lots of details on where the data is coming from and scan the attack rankings for the day.

2. Next, how about a live botnet threat map? Put on some classical music to go with this one and you’ll have your own synchronized “attack show” of real-time botnet attacks around the globe.

3. Next is the Fortinet real-time attack map. It may not be the most exciting visually, but there are a couple of cool features that make it unique. The bottom left-hand corner has easy to understand (and dramatic) cyber attack statistics, and if you look at the map you’ll see a day/night map is subtly overlayed onto the cyber attack map. So you can see where bad actors like to work after dark.

4. There’s a little more color in our next map from FireEye. Here’s what sets this one apart: It is less dramatic with its attack graphics than some of the others, and it also shows the top attacked verticals for the past 30 days.

5. We also discovered Bitdefender’s real-time cyber threat map, which claims to show infections and attacks. Plus, its rapid-fire list of attacks drives home the point for non-technical folks.

6. Another really good looking live cyber attack map is from SonicWall, which was pointed out by a SecureWorld reader. We really like the easy to scan analytics at the bottom of the map which shows which countries are top attack targets right now and the average number of cyber attacks per site for the day, among other things.

7. The last one is what you might call an InfoSec classic. Not only does this cyber threat map include the “pew-pew” sound of video games from the ’80s, but it flat out says its data comes from the cloud, including the cumulus cloud! And it translates the attacks it is supposedly tracking into phrases like “it’s cyber Pompeii” or “we’ll just call it a glitch.”

With a name like Threatbutt, need we say more
