Re: US Air Force developing DDOS capabilities
To attack the public internet, you have to be on the public internet.
My point is :
[Critical] systems are NOT on the public internet |

I'd be pretty scared for my own security if someone got into that. Many what you call 'critical' systems are definatly attackable from the outside world. |

Oh no! DISN is down? Now we have to pick up a phone and do stuff the old fashioned way! Inconvenient? Sure. Critical? No. |
