As cases of COVID-19 continue to increase at an alarming rate, internet activity contributes its own challenges to the global crisis. The pandemic has acted as this year’s catalyst for the requisite “internet loses its mind” moment, and information security teams are under heavy pressure by a flood of new threats. Never a group to miss an opportunity to profit from uncertainty and fear, bad actors are aggressively targeting both individuals and businesses. However, the crisis has also given rise to numerous collaborative efforts and displays of altruism by registries, registrars and security professionals as they work to combat the firehose of emerging threats. Domain registrations related to the pandemic have surpassed 100,000 since January 1, 2020. Unsurprisingly, the largest surge occurred in the week following the WHO’s declaration of COVID-19 as a pandemic on March 11, with daily registrations then doubling to more than 4,000 per day.
