Arent these more the attack trends of tier-3 providers and not network operators.
Maybe. I don't see too many tier-1 network operators attacking other tier-1 network operators. The trend I continue to see affecting network operators is customer security incidents, i.e. compromised end-user applications.
Seems to me that The the real issues is when the tier-2 and tier-1 infrastructure come under attack. Otherwise these others are all at the applications layer - which so few on this list are interested in.
There are lots of interesting problems, but I don't know if 2003 is the year. DOS is just too much fun. Route hijacks/bogus origins Compromised infrastructure MLPS alteration Authentication attacks Physical intrusion
