🚨 There's an enormous amount of traffic at a .su domain (old Soviet Union TLD), per #Cloudflare Radar. It's outranking every other big domain out there ( #Google, #Microsoft, #Facebook, etc.) Maybe this is related to a botnet controller and the #Azure outage, but if anyone out there in #infosec knows more, please comment. The host machine(s) are at Softlayer in Texas.

overload [dot] su now too. h/t @briankrebs this is the Aisuru botnet taking different forms. https://krebsonsecurity.com/2025/10/aisuru-botnet-shifts-from-ddos-to-residential-proxies/
Even stranger - the domain name is an address:
14emeliaterracewestroxburyma02132 [dot] su
14 Emelia Ter, West Roxbury, MA 02132
Is this just a string scraped from the web that was chosen randomly by an algorithm, or a clue / reference of some kind?

I mean normally I wouldn't post an address like this, but that address is literally the most popular site on the internet right now. Should the people living there be alerted?
