DDoS Rhapsody

In this episode of the Inside Out Security Show panel – Cindy Ng, Mike Buckbee and Mike Thompson – shared their thoughts on the latest botnet attack.

“This botnet attack that happened recently that brought down the DNS services. That’s probably unfortunately the first of many,” warns Mike Thompson. His concerns also launched the group into discussing the challenges of balancing innovation alongside security and privacy.

We ended the show with a few tools Buckbee recommended, “The big DDoS attack that happened, it was really targeted at a company called Dyn…It was the DNS that indicated where the traffic should go that was messed up, at the DNS provider level…A lot of times, it happens at a local level…it’s really easy to mess up your own DNS. A very useful tool: What’s my DNS”

Listen in if you wanna know the very first security precaution Thompson takes when he gets a new router. You'll also learn who out of the group has embraced IoT devices with open arms.
