We have seen over the last year a continuous increase on the
frequency and size of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks use
for various goals, ranging from extortion of the victims, censorship,
diversion from other attacks, and state sponsored events. Currently, big
DDoS attacks are in the terabit scale. They can be easily hired,
starting with less than 10 Euros. In this talk, we will cover the
incentives, business models, and what we can expect and do about this
emerging threat.
