It will help of course, but really not The solution... Or is there one?
In this industry, anybody who advertises The Solution should automatically be considered a snake oil salesman. There's no One Great Answer, because there's more than one question. There's a LOT of things that would help: Ingress filtering Egress filtering Clued incident response teams Systems not shipped insecure by default. etc etc etc. You've heard them all, I've said them all, they all address parts of the problem. Nothing addresses all of it. Ingress/egress filtering would help in some cases of a DDoS packet flood. Ingress/egress filtering doesn't do squat when Nimda is on a burn. -- Valdis Kletnieks Computer Systems Senior Engineer Virginia Tech
