See "Arbor Networks’ Sixth Annual Worldwide Infrastructure Security Report" (PR, here) and report (here - registration required).
Arbor's survey ("participants included 111 self-classified Tier 1, Tier 2 and other IP network operators from the US and Canada, Latin/South America, EMEA, Africa and Asia") also indicates that:
- Application-layer DDoS attacks target data center infrastructure
- Mobile operators have limited visibility and control over their networks
- DNS and IPv6 continue to present significant challenges for network operators
As for the lack of visibility in mobile packet core - "59% of respondents indicated they have limited or no visibility whatsoever (see chart below)..over 50% indicated that they have no visibility or extremely limited visibility into their network traffic at the Gi interface".
