Is anyone taking any special precautions given the
potential for a sudden increase in aggregate packets per second across your
networks come Sunday afternoon when the original Mydoom virus enters into
its DOS phase?
Does anyone know if the virus' assault will be
slowed if it is unable to reach www.sco.com? I am hoping that if it cannot
reach SCO's site that the HTTP GET command will be slow in returning,
effectively reducing the volume of traffic a single PC is capable is
generating. I am having a difficult time artificially forcing the virus to
start its attack in a lab environment, so I am unable to confirm
this.
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks!
