Sources of Observed Attack Traffic

• Myanmar no longer top source, but still near top of the list• Nearly half of attacks targeting Port 80 (WWW) came from Myanmar• Observed attack traffic distribution:

• 47% from APAC• 30% from Europe


• 20% from Americas• 3% from Africa

Top Ports Targeted by Observed Attacks

• Port 80 (WWW) also a top target from Indonesia, Russia, the United States (as well as Myanmar)

• Nearly 70% of attacks targeting Port 1433 (MS SQL Server) originated in China

• Data from third-party ‘honeypot’ system largely aligned with observations from Akamai’s network


observations from Akamai s network

Client-Side SSL Cipher Observations

• What is an “SSL Cipher”?• What is an SSL Cipher ?• Trends indicate that SSL is getting safer & more secure over time

• Adoption of newer browsers• Government & Industry regulations


Government & Industry regulations

IPv4 Addresses Seen By Akamai

• Over 604 million IPv4 addresses from 238 countries/regions connected to Akamai in Q2 2011

• Top 10 countries account for just over 68% of global figure• Rate of YoY change in the United States has been slowing over

the last several quarters – peaked at 18% in Q3 2010


World IPv6 Day – June 8, 2011

• What was “World IPv6 Day”?What was World IPv6 Day ?• IPv6 traffic on Akamai peaked shortly after World IPv6 Day began• www.akamai.com/ipv6• With limited IPv4 address space available planning for IPv6


• With limited IPv4 address space available, planning for IPv6 adoption is critical.

Global Average Connection Speeds

• Strong QoQ & YoY growth seen in global average speed• Asia holds top three spots, while balance of Top 10 is European• Globally, 29 qualifying countries/regions had average connection

d f 1 Mb l


speeds of 1 Mbps or less• Lebanon was slowest, at 379 kbps

Regional Average Connection Speed Comparison

• Greatest range in average speeds seen across APAC countries• Average speeds in top U.S. states compare favorably to top

European countries


p• General trend towards increased average speeds over time

Global Average Peak Connection Speeds

• Solid quarterly and strong yearly growth seen in global average • Solid quarterly and strong yearly growth seen in global average peak connection speed (second consecutive quarter >10 Mbps)

• Average peak speeds >10 Mbps seen in 69 countries• Among qualifying countries Guinea-Bissau’s 1 5 Mbps was the


• Among qualifying countries, Guinea Bissau s 1.5 Mbps was the slowest average peak connection speed

Regional Avg Peak Connection Speed Comparison

• Again, greatest range in speeds seen among APAC countries• Approximately half of surveyed APAC countries & European

countries had peak speeds above 20 Mbps; so did 30 U.S. states


• 30 Mbps appears to be a key threshold – few countries/states above it, otherwise they are well below it

Global High Broadband Adoption

M th t f ll ti t Ak i i Q2 2011 t • More than a quarter of all connections to Akamai in Q2 2011 were at speeds above 5 Mbps

• Of the 59 countries that qualified for inclusion:• Only India (0 4%) and China (0 6%) have adoption rates <1%


• Only India (0.4%) and China (0.6%) have adoption rates <1%• Adoption rates >25% in 29 countries

Regional High Broadband Adoption Comparison

• Wide range of adoption rates seen in both Europe & APAC• High broadband adoption >70% only seen in U.S. states• Multiple European countries & U.S. states in 30% range –


Multiple European countries & U.S. states in 30% range in APAC, only Singapore

Global Broadband Adoption

Nearly two thirds of all connections to Akamai in Q2 2011 were at • Nearly two-thirds of all connections to Akamai in Q2 2011 were at speeds above 2 Mbps

• Tight clustering in the 90% range among the Top 10 countries• Among qualifying countries/regions Venezuela had the lowest


• Among qualifying countries/regions, Venezuela had the lowest level of broadband adoption (2.0%)

Regional Broadband Adoption Comparison

• Very strong broadband adoption across European countries –multiple countries >90%; only Hong Kong >90% in APAC

• Delaware plateauing at ~98% broadband adoption


Delaware plateauing at 98% broadband adoption• Among qualifying countries, Philippines & India were the only two

with broadband adoption rates below 10%

Global Voice/Data Traffic In Cellular Networks

• Volume of mobile data traffic doubled from Q2 2010 – Q2 2011• Mobile data traffic volume is now over 2x mobile voice traffic


Ratio of Active Smartphone Users

• For new iPhone & Android smartphones. 50-75% of subscribers


generate >1 MB of traffic per day, on average

Smartphone Traffic Volumes for Active Users

• Median weekly traffic volume for “active” (>1 MB) smartphone


users ranges between 30-80 MB for most smartphone models

Application Traffic Across Subscriber Clusters(new high-end Android model)

• Heavy users spend two orders of magnitude more time watching


online video w/ their smartphones than median users(~40 min/day for heaviest 5% vs. 0.5 min/day for median)

Internet Disruptions & Outages

• Syria saw an Internet disruption on June that lasted 24-36 hours• Connectivity in Syria relies primarily on one domestic provider• Akamai saw traffic into Syria drop significantly during this time


• Akamai saw traffic into Syria drop significantly during this time
