Internet Storm Center Tracks Hack Attacks

An Anonymous Coward writes: "It looks like Incidents.org has a new offspring, the Internet Storm Center. The internet storm center uses data from DShield.org to track hack attacks all over the world. Some of the interesting trivia: While usually, China has a bad reputation for the volume of attack coming from it, the US outpaces China by a lot. Actually, China only comes in at #6. So much for the great security boost the US gets from using genuine Microsoft software."

    Site doesn't work in my zilla 0.9 installation, time to go to 1.01 on this machine.

    But, I'm guessing there are a lot more machines reporting from the US of A, and I wonder how many of them are getting feeds with chinese hosts blocked out.

    I'm having a Hank Senior moment.
