This does not invalidate this presentation though. The recent IoT attacks are a new wave, but the point is:
- if it's not IP spoofing - you can track the botnet and eventually destroy it. I'm not saying it's easy or hard, but that it's technically possible.
- if the attack is IP spoofing, it's very hard to track it down and destroy the source.
