Re: Solutions for DoS & DDoS

[Steve <angst1974 () yahoo com>]

The ideal solution is a carrier that has its own true DDoS mitigation platform, and does not rely on black hole routing 
. Have the carrier handle the the large bulk flood attacks, then have your own prem base mitigation platform take care 
of the more application specific attacks that get through .

This represents the best solution , and also the most expensive . So it may not work for a non profit.
