|

Looks like we're at the beginning of a new denial of service attack against www.castlecops.com. I'm currently investigating and mitigating. As this seems to be the start of an attack, there is the potential for it to increase.

I can use the botnet reporter as a DDOS reporter.
All I need is the IPs with timestamps,and the Time Zone, in a format like this
200.82.89.110 yy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss

We have been rattling a lot of cages lately and to me, this DDOS shows we are on the right track.

Howdy,
Mitigation must be working, I have almost no lag getting around right now.
161ppm 3.303s (0.414s)
1PM Central - 161ppm 0.954s (0.107s)

Hey it's not all bad!
I mean look at it this way:
If your being attacked that really just means that you are such a big threat that people try to take you down.
That means that your doing a good job!!
Even better they exposed them selfs. ALWAYS when I get a hold of an IP Address that committed crime I report it and call up the ISP did that to a user and I think they got terminated.
It's always fun to beat the idiot cybercriminals!

It has a fixed template header and trailer, with the ASN-specific data in the middle. Here is an example taken from the botnet reporter for one ISP on Jan 28.. The system gathers multiple ASNs under the same ISP where applicable. In this case, there are two for the same addressee (12271 and 20001).
General format is
{insert fixed format header here re the DDOS}
In the following list, the timestamps are in time zone GMT+00. Please adjust them to your local time zone. Locate the customer connected at that IP address at those times, and take the appropriate action. All of these incidents were in the last 3 days.
Here are the IP addresses of each machine which is infected, the time stamps when first and last seen, the number of times it was observed, your Autonomous System Number, and the reverse lookup on the IP address if available.

{insert fixed trailer here}
If you want me to run it, you can supply your own header / trailer. All I need is the simplified log (IP + Timestamp) and the Time zone

Thanks for all you do, Paul, I know what an effort you must be putting in to allow us to keep our access to the site. And the people who benefit most will never know why there was a dead link in that email that asked them to update their banking information or download an ecard from an admirer -- but we know.
