Re: Re: DDOS mitigation

I tend to agree with Christopher Stromblad on this one. Ok, so their are products to mitigate DDoS attacks but in the 
example cited, you need to turn up an new circuit to get the advertised product. If you have a contractual agreement 
that locks you in with your current provider and lack the funding for a second circuit, you're pretty much screwed.

My honest opinion, the best solution for DDoS mitigation is a good relationship with your upstream provider.
