Calculate the cost of a DDOS attack

• sokoloff 11y ago
  "To use the DDoS Downtime Calculator, simply visit the calculator page and answer six short questions about your organization and its existing security measures." And give an email address for them to deliver the key results that couldn't possibly be delivered right on the web site itself... I'd recommend against detailing your existing organization and security measures on a webform that can be trivially associated with your work email address. The very best that will happen is that you'll get a bunch of sales information into your inbox.

    For what it's worth, I answered accurately (except for my email address) and was told that we had a FALSE% chance of suffering a DDOS attack. Needs some work.

      It needs work only if the intent is to provide an accurate estimate. Since the more likely intent for the tool is to generate inbound marketing leads from potential customers, ideally those less than fully clueful, I suspect it's "WONTFIX: working as designed".
