Distributed denial of service attack on the main web server occurred over the weekend of March 9th - 10th. This caused the server to be inaccessible to the public. The attack came from foreign & domestic IPs, which stressed out/maximized resources. With the help of the Systems team, foreign IPs were blocked, which restored services but was still slow with being hit by domestic IPs . The attack continued over the evening forcing www.sfsu.edu to be taken down. Nat & Shawn worked over the weekend going through files and piecing together a timeline of the attack. They worked with the Systems team to get new firewall rules in place.
