An Information Security Place

Commentary on the State of Information Security
Filed under DDos, Security

It looks like at least one server at bluehost.com was DDos’ed yesterday.  Bluehost.com hosts my website, so I was unable to reach my site for most of the day.  They said that the site was up, but they had to block large segments of the Internet from which the attack was coming, so I guess I was on one of those segments.  If you couldn’t get to infosecplace.com yesterday, then you were also on one of those segments.

I am trying to get some details about the attack and will let you know if I get any details.
