Don't have time to check the site yet, but does it account for the origin of attacks being spoofed?

wow that is awesome. I just watched America get owned by the world all at once. It literally lite up my entire screen!

It's a pretty picture, but a lot of the 'attacks' they list are pretty basic script kiddy tools and/or bot net generated. Given the number of active attacks they list at any given time compared to the number of hosts in any of those countries the numbers are a lot smaller than I'd have guessed were going on at any given time. .. especially for DDOS attacks. Getting hit by a DDOS from a fairly small number of IPs for a tiny interval shouldn't be too scary for any sys admin.

It would be impressive to execs if we put it up on one of our control center screens though....

The article that I found this in said the vast majority of attacks are bot attacks.

I have been saying for nearly 20 years that the internet is the battlefield of the future. The net espionage from China and ever increasing black budget defense spending for American security hackers is a clear indicator that this is becoming realty rather than theory at a rapid rate.

Yesterday, the site was working fine in Safari or FF.
Today, it says only Chrome :rofl

I believe America wins in the ability to wage war over trollery, .gifs, and memes.

I'm glad to know that some nerdy kid in USA is defending us from China's onslaught...:laughing

Go nerd go

And typical of canada to surrender even in a cyber war
