"The attackers used an army of bots from around the globe to hammer the servers with bogus and abnormally large DNS requests -- partially formed DNS messages of over 350 bytes each, according to a report from the ISC. The majority of the traffic came from nodes in Seoul (61 percent of the attack traffic) and Beijing (18 percent). Another 13 percent originated from nodes in San Francisco and another 7 percent elsewhere, according to ISC numbers"

Security can not be optional! Charging the end users for basic security, makes it less than optional!


Security MUST be available to everyone for free! Otherwise we are creating an army of bots that could turn against us!!

Which is why we need CMC to catch bot armies where they live.

Exactly! While the vision was of Melih in armor on a horse slashing through bots yelling "Security MUST be available!" as a war cry,  lol, there is no truer statement!  Now I vision the moderators in armor as well yelling "ALL HAIL COMODO!"   Where is Paulo in all this?....

LONG LIVE COMODO!  (R)

I saw this on the B5tech forum, wondered if it was correct?

"Check the routing through the PRC zombie network...  Most of the zombies used as passthroughs are in the Korean Peninsula

The attack came out of the PRC."

From what I gather , most new zombie attacks come from China and U.S then South Korea. I know the U.S produced most spam second to SK. But yeah, mostly PRC out of 157000 a day, I think 22% or maybe higher are PRC related.

The rest of Zombie attacks come from graveyards and wherever nuclear radiation was spilled , they protrude from the soil looking for brains. They'll be dissapointed when they hit my town...

BTW , Welcome to the forum!

Gee, shucks. Me? I'm just the guy who sharpens and cleans the sword, and feeds the horses.

Geez, and here I pictured you or Egemen holding a huge comodo shield running into battle! Well you have it better than me. I would run into battle yelling and then realize I forgot my sword !

I don't get why they say security should be free when they sell security certificates.

[panic]

They are talking about desktop security. There is a massive infrastructure required to be a player in the SSL industry, and money doesn't grow on trees. There has to be money generated somewhere to enable the free stuff to be developed.

Although we call them code monkeys, developers don't work for peanuts.

There are millions of people in the world who cannot afford an annual sub for security, but may have been given a recycled computer.   We all need for them to be safe from being taken over.

That is what this very old thread is about.

SSL certificate is required by businesses. And Businesses can afford few dollars.

Free Security is for end users. There are many who can't afford security for their desktops.

I agree  we have to try to promote comodo to business owners that would purchase comodo products.
