[AusNOG] The shape of DDoS to come

[Peter Tiggerdine]

Is there any evidence to suggest that IoT devices played a part on this
DDoS? My understanding is we're still dealing with the same problem as
ever; unpatched/secured desktops/routers/switches which when you consider
how accessible large amounts of bandwidth is explain the increase in DDoS
size.

Most IoT devices don't enough CPU power to contribute more than 1K
sustained. Doesn't mean there's not alot to be done in the security space
with IoT, just means there's better targets with greater return.

Regards,

Peter Tiggerdine
