Hacker group Lizard Squad continues series of attacks on EA servers with very exciting details…
Lizard Squad hackers continue their series of attacks on EA servers
Previously on our website, we discussed that EA servers are indeed under a series of strong attacks by the Lizard Squad hackers, causing confusion for the company and users. Many users have noticed multiple issues with the servers. The company is trying to defend against these attacks by strengthening the servers and fixing what can be fixed. However, Lizard Squad, through a series of tweets on Twitter, stated that they enjoy these attacks and are only interested in targeting FIFA 20 servers.
Due to the company’s flawed architecture, all other game servers are also suffering as they share the same servers. This was evident in the servers of Need for Speed series and other titles like Battlefield.
The group has vowed to continue the attacks until the company complies with their demands. They claim to have control over all of the company’s servers using only 40% of their network power with the use of bots, easily bringing down the servers. They criticize the company for not investing in strengthening their infrastructure, particularly the game servers, making them vulnerable to such attacks. We will continue to closely monitor all details related to these ongoing attacks by Lizard Squad and the response from EA. Regards.
Something to note: EA servers are extremely weak. Using 40% of our botnet power to take Fifa offline worldwide. All of EA’s games are linked to the same server, meaning every EA game goes offline when ideally the attack was only meant to be for Fifa.
