Jio services down for thousands of users across India, netizens react

Norway was hit by a cyberattack that temporarily shut down websites of several private and public institutions. &nbsp;Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store said that the attack “has not caused any significant damage” to his knowledge.

In the last 24 hours, a number of institutions, including the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority, were subjected to distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) cyberattack, the Norwegian National Security Authority said.

The aortitis believe that pro-Russian hackers might be responsible for this attack.

"We are working to find out whether there is a link with state-sponsored actors," NSM chief Sofie Nystroem later told broadcaster TV2.

"We are quite certain that no sensitive information was taken."

The attacks come days after Russia threatened to take “retaliatory measures” after Norway imposed sanctions, blocking&nbsp;goods destined for Russian-populated settlements on the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard.

Norwegian media reported that the country’s ambassador to Moscow was summoned to the Foreign Ministry on Wednesday for a complaint over Russian supplies being prevented from transiting via Norway to an Arctic Russian coal-mining settlement.

Svalbard, located midway between Norway’s north coast and the North Pole, is part of Norway, but Russia has the right to exploit the archipelago’s natural resources under a treaty signed in 1920, and some settlements on the archipelago are populated mainly by Russians.

Norway, which is not in the European Union but enforces&nbsp;EU sanctions&nbsp;against Russia, has said sanctions would not affect the transport of goods by ship to Svalbard.

Norway’s restrictions have disrupted the work of the Russian consulate-general on Spitsbergen, the largest island of the Svalbard archipelago, and a Russian coal mining settlement there, the Russian foreign ministry said on Wednesday.

Moscow has long wanted a bigger say in the archipelago, which it insists on calling Spitsbergen rather than the Norwegian Svalbard and has been a haunt of its hunters, whalers and fishermen since the 16th century.

Hit by cyberattack, Norway suspects pro-Russian hackers

The internet has become an irreplaceable tool across most of the globe, serving as the backbone of commercial operations and e-commerce, worldwide news and social media commentary, as well as health and public welfare.&nbsp;

We take the internet for granted when it functions well. It's similar to breathing. We don't think about it, or the procedure that goes on behind the scenes.&nbsp;

But once it stops working, then we realise the authority of its presence in our daily life. The internet is becoming more and more centralised. As a result, it has become more vulnerable to catastrophic breakdowns.

<h2>Here is the list of the worst server outages in recent internet history:</h2>

Dyn Cyberattack of 2016

This catastrophe impacted people across two continents, including the United States and Europe, as well as popular platforms like Airbnb, Amazon, BBC, CNN, eBay, Netflix, and Twitter. Multiple distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) assaults attacked Dyn's Managed Domain Name System (DNS) service.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.wionews.com/videos/british-airways-suffers-flight-delays-after-it-system-failure-3520">British Airways IT failure of 2017</a>

The whole of British Airways fleet was grounded in 2017 due to a huge IT failure, disrupting the travel plans of thousands of passengers not only in the UK but all over the world who were intending to board a British Airways flight.&nbsp;

Microsoft Azure cloud outage of 2018

Microsoft is one of the firms that offer Azure cloud servers as a platform for app development. However on June 20, 2018, the large cloud company's fortunes took a turn for the worse. In a nightmare scenario, a human error at one of Microsoft's data centres in Dublin, Ireland, resulted in an 11-hour outage.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.wionews.com/business-economy/facebook-and-instagram-suffer-global-outages-265135">Facebook server outage</a>&nbsp;of 2019

While Facebook and its services have endured countless outages over the years, the one on March 13, 2019, was by far the worst, affecting 7.5 million people, according to DownDetector. People with Facebook services were disrupted for nearly a day and a half, according to Downdetector.&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/monday-blues-google-drive-gmail-youtube-face-downtime-twitter-reacts-349730">Google Server Crash</a>&nbsp;of 2020

The world saw Google services break down in December 2020, resulting in a global outage of important services such as YouTube, Gmail, Google Drive, Google Meet, and others. All this when millions were working from home during the Covid pandemic. An examination eventually discovered that the problem was caused by a storage quota issue within the company.&nbsp;

Websites of several global media groups, international organisations, the White House as well as internet giants including Amazon, Reddit, Twitch, Github, Shopify and Spotify were&nbsp; affected by this outage. The issue was traced to a problem with Fastly, a cloud computing service provider employed by several of these companies. The glitch was caused by an undiscovered bug, according to Fastly's blog.
