FireHost Secure cloud hosting company issued Q2 2013 Superfecta report that revealed a sharp increase in blended, automated attacks. The report examined more than 24 million cyber attacks observing a meaningful increase for Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) and SQL Injection attacks. Cyber criminals are targeting cloud service provider networks to gather information to use in successive attacks, FireHost experts state in the report to have blocked more than 1.2 million attacks in Q2, they highlighted that the smallest percentage increase (0.7%) in XSS attacks suggests that this type of attack is commonly used in conjunction with other exploits, probably to allow an attacker to gain access to more complex attack vectors.”]
