Doubts on SCO DoS Attack
posted by scubacuda on Sunday December 14, @12:11PM
from the to-error-is-human;-to-SYN,-divine dept.
Security Internet Week reports on the doubts some have regarding SCO's claims of being DoS'd. Says Bruce Schneier, CTO of Counterpane, "SCO's self-diagnosis makes no sense. But that doesn't mean SCO is lying. We have no idea. We'll never know. Clearly, it's not a SYN flood, they're wrong about that. The question is, are they lying, or is a clever hacker doing something to them that looks to a nave observer like a SYN flood?"
