Google and Arbor Networks have created a Digital Attack Map to show Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) attacks in real time.  The release of the map comes at the same time as Google’s release of its Project Shield using Google’s “attack mitigation technology.” The service is currently invite-only.

Because DDOS attacks are often politically or ideologically motivated, Google intends the tool to be used to assist with protection of freedom of expression.
