In this sponsored podcast we chat with both Arbor Networks' Nick Race and Matt Hollis of Vocus.
We discuss the state of both application and volumetric based DDoS techniques.
As you'd no doubt be aware, Arbor makes DDoS mitigation equipment -- there's the enterprise stuff that blocks application-based attacks, like attacks that exhaust resources on the target, then there's the telco stuff that blocks the volumetric attacks -- a.k.a. bandwidth exhaustion attacks.
I started off by speaking with Matt Hollis of ASX - listed connectivity provider Vocus. These guys have some serious tubes, so they're used to seeing a lot of volumetric attacks. Then I got on the line with Arbor Networks' Nick Race to discuss app-based attacks.
