I've been working on an automated triager for the frequent volumetric DDOS we see against www.bbc.com & www.bbc.co.uk.

The idea is to use our edge access logs (stored in BigQuery) to isolate & describe the attack traffic then recommend any additional mitigations/filters etc. It also gives us a database of DDOS metrics/sources we can reference.

Obviously I had to add the obligatory pew-pew map.

Dark mode map of the earth with an overlay of circles denoting the source countries for a recent DDOS. The circles are varying sizes, larger indicate more traffic from that country. USA, India, Indosia, Vietnam & Germany have the largest circles & thus the larger sources of attack traffic though there are around 50 source countries in all.
