Somebody FINALLY went after DNS! Interesting approach, MUCH better than going after websites. Can't wait to see what's next? The DOT servers?

Heed the warning of this attack, I see much worse to follow. I'm gonna be out of work when all the IT starts crashing......I'm picturing the Y2K scenario in the very near future. Unfortunately whoever is doing it either doesn't realize how much affect the USA has on the rest of the world, or honestly doesn't care. Sgt Wayne Wood I'm thinking all us IT people need to start banding together....may need to go back to HAM radios to do it though.

SSG Derek Scheller - luckily, when I decided to go back to school for my bachelors degree I went for computer science. I eventually decided i didn't like coding, but I can still do a little here and there and read enough to figure out what things should be doing. Have an AAS in Networking and have been doing hardware, software and network stuff for over 12 years.....I'm about as well rounded as they come, and like you, a rarity in the field.
