On March 10, 2025, X.com—one of the world’s leading social media platforms—experienced a prolonged outage, leaving users and observers puzzled. While downtime isn’t unheard of for major websites, the extended disruption has sparked widespread speculation about its cause.
However, Elon Musk, X.com’s owner, took to the platform to reveal that a massive cyberattack is behind the outage, actively disrupting services.
Our analysis of the cyber attack:
Using the term “Cyber attack” can mean a lot of things. However, we at InfoSecDigest.com believe that this could possibly be a large-scale DDoS(Distributed Denial of Service) attack by haktivists. Notebly, Elon Musk has been making headlines lately from his remarks about Ukraine to to his Tesla facilities across the nation being attacked by activists.
