Why does it seem like everyone is trying to "solve" this the wrong way?

Do other networks' abuse departments just not give a shit? Blackhole all
of the zombie attackers and notify their abuse departments. Sure, most of
the owners of the PCs being used in these scenarios have no idea they're
being used to attack people, but I'd think that if their network's abuse
department was notified, either they'd contact the customer about it issue
or at least have on file that they were notified. When the unknowing
end-user reached out to support over larger and larger parts of the
Internet not working, they'd be told to clean up their system.

The way to stop this stuff is for those millions of end users to clean up
their infected PCs.



1. BCP38 protects your neighbor, do it.

2.  Protect yourself by having your upstream police Police UDP to some
baseline you are comfortable with.

3.  Have RTBH ready for some special case.

4.  Sleep better at night.

I do all of the above for the last 18 months.

Subject: DDOS solution recommendation

Nanog group

I was wondering what are are using for DDOS protection in your networks. We
are currently evaluating different options (Arbor, Radware, NSFocus,
RioRey) and I would like to know if someone is using the cloud based
solutions/scrubbing centers like Imperva, Prolexic, etc and what are the
advantages/disadvantages of using a cloud base vs an on-premise solution.
It would be great if you can share your experience on this matter.

Thank you
