Description
A decade ago, the Mirai DDoS botnet was the biggest seen with a capacity of roughly 600 Gbit/s packet floods. The week after the high-profile attack on krebsonsecurity, they pointed the direction at a Libera Chat (at the time known as "Freenode") IRC server hosted by Academic Computer Club at Umeå University.
This talk gives a brief overview on how the network providers SUNET and NORDUNet mitigated the impact so that the University as a whole was unaffected, and only the targeted server and the computer club saw minor glitches in external connectivity.
