Story: Symbiot launches DDoS counter-strike tool
Posted by: GWTPict (Thursday 11 March 2004, 2:56 AM)
IF the system works as advertised, and advertising is all I've seen so far, great, but I have my doubts and I can see lazy/technically illiterate admins launching counterattacks left right and centre. As for Granny and Uncle Dave, they don't even know what a firewall is, I set a laptop up with AV and a firewall for a friend who runs her business from it, she got the idea of AV but got someone else to switch the firewall off because 'it wasn't working properly' read she didn't understand it. Now she does, education is the answer here, not all out war resulting in widespread 'collateral' damage.
