How do you defend a login platform that 179.5 million accounts depend on? Latin Times reports Serpro confirmed a record six-month DDoS campaign against Gov.br. Serpro says no services were disrupted, but some details are still open. www.latintimes.com/serpro-govbr...
A 100GbE link doesn’t automatically mean 100 Gbps of useful data. Ethernet overhead and packet size both change what a device can handle. A 64-byte frame takes 84 bytes of transmission capacity. Line rate, throughput and Mpps explained: fastnetmon.com/2026/11/02/w... #FastNetMon #Ethernet
How long does VPP take to absorb a rule change at 100K rules? One ACL with 100K entries: about 11.2 ms. 100K one-entry ACLs: about 26 s per added ACL (extrapolated). Denys Haryachyy on why ACL layout matters. fastnetmon.com/2026/10/28/v... #FastNetMon #VPP
Essen, the FastNetMon power trio is coming to DENOG 18 next week! ⚡ 15 to 17 November, Haus der Technik. Working on DDoS detection and mitigation, traffic visibility or routing? Book a meeting with us. fastnetmon.com/2026/07/12/s... #FastNetMon #DENOG18
Cloudflare’s Q3 2026 DDoS report: CLDAP floods collapsed to 0.05% of attacks, DNS amplification rose 215% and other UDP floods went from 14% to 31%. How these attacks work and how to mitigate them: fastnetmon.com/2026/10/15/c...
More great insights from Denys Haryachyy, and this one is a surprise. Adding cores made VPP slower. The cause: one buffer pool lock. The fix: one BIOS setting (NPS1 to NPS4), taking 62 workers from 148 to 450 Mpps. fastnetmon.com/2026/10/21/how-numa-tripled-vpps-packet-rate-on-amd-epyc/
What is line-rate DDoS filtering, explained. A 100G link with 64-byte frames can carry about 148.8 million packets per second. Gbps alone doesn’t tell you if a filter can keep up. #FastNetMon #DDoS #NetworkEngineering fastnetmon.com/2026/10/26/w...
CVE-2026-98432: a Linux kernel use-after-free in IPv4 TCP connection handling. Ubuntu lists a CVSS 3 score of 9.8 (Critical), with fixes still in progress. Not a FastNetMon issue, but worth checking your Linux servers. ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2026-98432 #Linux #CVE #NetworkSecurity
FastNetMon Advanced handles IPv4 and IPv6 in the same deployment, using the same threshold-based detection for both. When an IPv6 host is detected under attack, FastNetMon can automatically announce a /128 BGP blackhole over IPv6. fastnetmon.com/docs-fnm-adv...
FastNetMon has always been configured from the command line. With LiveView, your whole team can manage it from the browser instead. Thresholds, notifications, mitigation actions, user access all available directly in LiveView. No CLI required. #FastNetMon #LiveView #DDoS
