  1. Turns out a load of people in the UK set their alarm for 07:00 - closely followed by 07:17 then 08:11 (which is a good deal higher than 08:00).

    These are the RPS stats for the BBC service which (re)validates authentication sessions.

    You can also clearly see a spike around 09:30 when, presumably, people have looked through email and check the news. Then there's the spike for the 13:00 news/lunch break.

    We're all creatures of habit, it's the same *every* day.

  3. 83% of requests (globally) to our apex homepages (bbc.co.uk/ and bbc.com/) are from "Python Requests".

    That's 84 million requests per day.

    In the words of Bricktop...

  5. I've been working on an automated triager for the frequent volumetric DDOS we see against www.bbc.com & www.bbc.co.uk.

    The idea is to use our edge access logs (stored in BigQuery) to isolate & describe the attack traffic then recommend any additional mitigations/filters etc. It also gives us a database of DDOS metrics/sources we can reference.

    Obviously I had to add the obligatory pew-pew map.
