Presented at
DEF CON 20 (2012),
July 28, 2012, 3 p.m.
(50 minutes)
Enterprises currently dump millions of bucks to defense against DDoS, some trading firms here are paying for fear to the DDoS attack from China about 5K to 100K USD per day and InfoSec teams believe their solutions are perfect already.
Are those controls effective and unbreakable? In the first part of the presentation, we would like to show our studies and carry out over 10 types of DDoS test against various big firms and organizations to see whether their defense is effective, showing how stupid and smart they are. Various interesting case studies will be briefed :)
In the second part of the presentation, we will detail our proposed defense model to against Application-Level attacks. We have already checked with other vendors and researchers about our model, it is still not yet deployed and hopefully we could put this as an open source project in the future.
Hopefully, you will enjoy this fun session with us and learn whether your organization could survive even under DDoS attack.
