Call your local branch of the US Secret Service, if you're in the states,and ask for their electronic crimes division. If you're not in thestates, contact your comprable local authority. They can work with you tocoordinate with other jurisdictions, etc. You may have some luck directly with the local police at the point of origin, but it generally helps to have a broader agency involved to coordinate matters.
I'd love to hear from anyone who has actually been successful prosecuting an attacker for launching a "distributed" DOS attack. I suspect it occurs very INfrequently (with the recent trend in extortion aside, as it often results in "paper trails") -- unfortunately. Any pointers? -danny
