Down The Security Rabbithole

Join us this week on Down the Security Rabbithole as Barrett Lyon (who knows a thing or two about DDoS) is our guest to talk about the evolution of the art and science of kicking people off of a network. Barrett is the authority on DDoS, with over 20 years in the field, going back to when angry teenagers flooded each other off of IRC servers. This is a fun episode that walks through DDoS - where it came from, how it evolved, and what we can expect in the future. TLDR; yes ...your fridge may one day DDoS your toaster.   Guest Barrett Lyon ( @BarrettLyon ) - Barrett Lyon is the Vice President of Research and Development for the Neustar Security Solutions’ portfolio.
