John outlines the details of the DDoS attack that targeted the popular GitHub website. It was the largest DDoS attack ever in recorded history. The attackers used a known vulnerability of memcached servers to launch an amplification attack at GitHub. The attack lasted about 20 minutes, but GitHub successfully defended it. The attack vector used by the attackers still exists today, so the attack could be launched again with relative ease. Be sure to watch the video to learn about the attack and how to defend against it. • More info here on DevCentral: https://community.f5.com/articles/lig...
