DDoS Attack Suck

[Raymond]

While checking on WinMTR website, I found this link about DDoS.
http://www.appnor.com/security-ddos-attack-filtering

Everything about DDoS at that page short and straight to the point.
This sentence is especially true.

Remember: The best way to fight them is to prove you are immune to their DDOS attacks. Otherwise you will be a constant victim.

Raymond, have you ever read Steve Gibsons story of the [url=www.stanford.edu/class/msande91si/www-spr04/readings/week1/grcdos.pdf]DDOS attacks on GRC? Or his [url=www.grc.com/sn/sn-008.pdf]conversation with Leo Laporte? Interesting reading

The report with Leo Laprote i could read but the DDOS attacks on GRC i get a 404 error, the second report is made easy to read and explains quite abit about DDOS and how the first attacks came about..

Thanks A Guy.

Updated to a new link. It doesn't appear to be on GRC anymore, although I downloaded it earlier!

Thanks for the interesting links A Guy. And Raymond is certainly, DDoS certainly does suck!!

An interesting report by GRC...

Anyway, here is my DDoS Report Log. Really makes me wonder what did I write that pisses the attacker so much.

Highest Rate so far:
1,057,205 Kbps = 132 MegaBytes per second
1,073,725,716PPS = 1 BILLION packets per second (UNBELIEVABLE!)

IP address from where? Maybe you piss Kaspersky people off by discovering that Kaspersky CBE hack that affect their revenue?

That is absolutely incredible! It really gives one a new perspective on the disruptive capabilties of a DDoS attack. Thanks for sharing Raymond.
