Gambling Talk | Euro 2004 Gambling Sites Denial Of Service Attacks

Denial Of Service Attacks are not a new phenomenon but it seems the big betting firms still have not worked out how to put a stop to it.

Netcraft have been studying the Euro 2004 Championships level of DOS attacks on online bookmakers and have recorded the information in a piece originally named Euro 2004 Gambling Sites Hit By Denial Of Service Attacks

♠ Apparently Capital Sports have been the worst hit with 88.98 failed requests, ie punters not being able to access the online bookie. Blue Square had a 64.91 attack percentage, Ladbrokes Bookmakers 15.78, William Hills 11.94, Total Bet 6.88 with various other bookies in the low percentages though still quite costly.

♠ Blue Square ignored a demand of $30k and took some hefty denial of service attacks for their troubles.

Gamblog comment :: Apparently the gambling piranha gangs make money from this stuff because they just keep on swimming and nipping little chunks from the bookies satchel.
