題目(Title) Internet Traffic Trend and Cyber Attack
概要(Abstract) It’s been a long time since the internet became a part of our daily lives, but its importance has further increased due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As the importance of the internet continues to rise, there is a growing expectation for the provision of higher bandwidth and higher quality services. We, as telecommunications operators, are continuously working on enhancing and maintaining our networks to meet these demands.
However, unforeseen circumstances such as natural disasters and cyber-attacks have emerged, requiring us to constantly improve our preparedness to ensure stable service provision. In today’s lecture, I will address these phenomena occurring on the internet from the perspective of traffic. Additionally, I will introduce the challenges faced by the telecommunications industry and discuss future developments.
