  1. Even if it's not seen that often here on Mastodon: I'd like to share some news on my carrier path: I am happy to announce that I was promoted to a Senior recently. What makes this milestone even more meaningful to me is achieving a promotion around a year after graduating, and transitioning to full-time here at #NETSCOUT. I am grateful for being part of the #ASERT team which provides this environment of growth and encouragement. A special thanks to my mentors, managers and team mates!

    Let's get to work, and add more value, more novelty, more innovation to the threat intelligence that helps protecting the networks of our customers.

    Don't worry, the next posts will focus on networking, internet infrastructure and nerd stuff again :)

  5. My colleague @jtk and I worked on a small piece on insights by #Netscout on the DNS root server system. Despite all of the nuisance traffic reaching the root servers, our #DDoS telemetry does not yield terribly much. This is not a bad thing though, and can be explained through the ubiquity of #anycast on the 13 root server instances.

  6. Some will likely remember that #MegaMedusa caused issues to many folks due to their #DDoS tool leveraging open #proxy infrastructure. Shortly after, there appeared a feed online called #MiniMedusa. This feed truly disrupted the efficacy of the tool, and lead to a sharp drop of notable DDoS events. I summarized insights of our telemetry in a blog post:

  10. Between February and August, the #Eleven11 was on the news. Using the parallel #DNS root #OpenNIC was nothing new for a botnet. Yet, this botnet was the first known botnet of it's size using the OpenNIC system.

  19. My colleague and I recently worked on a blog post here at #NETSCOUT in which we explore a coordinated cyber response against organizations in #Italy. Political alignment once again lead to severe action happening in the cyber space.

    Despite the increased activity of threat actors, and the increased perception of public claims, in the broader picture of #DDoS, Italy did not experience a substantial change DDoS trends.
