Popis: | Attackers have used DNS amplification in over 34 % of high-volume DDoS attacks, with some floods exceeding 300 Gbps. The best current practices do not help victims during an attack; they are preventative measures that third-party organizations must employ in advance. Unfortunately, there are no incentives for these third parties to follow the recommendations. While practitioners have focused on reducing the number of open DNS resolvers, these efforts do not address the threat posed by authoritative DNS servers. |
