Welcome to IWETHEY!

New I thought it was non-point
I thought we couldn't do anything real about this kind of stuff because it came from thousands if not millions of sources.

Sort of like how you can never make progress killing mosquitoes because there are too many and they reproduce too fast.

Looks like a major pool of standing water just got drained.

There are times when I don't at all mind being wrong. This is one of them.

New it is non pointed attack
but the money tree needs to be close to the owners.
New Its correct that millions of "bots/zombies" are sprouting...
But they have multiple "controllers" that direct traffic and tasks.

Many Zombies have a list of IPs or range of IPs to use to look for controllers or payload providers.

Many of those IPs were at McColo. Even then, many of those IPs were proxies for the next layer... which were proxies for the (perhaps) starter.

Usually its hard to get everything. There might be a slow down, but just as easily as they shutdown the McColo location, there are other places that pick up slack.

There will be new trojan/malware compiled and driven/pushed out to all the "existing" listeners (being Zombies etc...) and put on the "normal" suspects.

Its a breather, but just to let you know, I just had a vendor have to handle a DDoS again today. So it is not *OVER*, just a major blow which will recover.
New you ever look at tipping point?

6 lines of perl using a hashed array and iptables did just fine.

I'm very sorry, but I'm not allowed to argue with you unless you've paid.
