Some presentations made at recent NANOGs discussed the continuous noise generated by DDoS attacks, though I can't find any numbers showing how much bandwidth the noise uses. With the number of always-on broadband residential and small-business customers, are education networks still the (only) haven of hackers they used to be? Even enterprises seem to be pretty active DDoS participants; there were/are a lot of corporations generating CodeRed probes, and a surprising number of residential machines. Are there any service providers running IDS/NIDS on their backbones and monitoring for DDoS attacks, to provide some impirical data on the scope of DDoS traffic? Pete.
