Here’s what they sent me:

There was a SYNC FLOOD where we were only receiving ACK to our webserver, so our Rio Rey, which is our anti-DDOS box, did not reject, because it was seen as legitimate traffic. Due to the nature of the problem, we were required to block approximately half of the internet at the Cisco level.

Anyone know what this Rio Rey product is, or maybe this is just their hostname?
