Why shut it down? Ramping up is better. Can you really shut down everything without something drastic and stupid like an EMP? And that wouldn't shut down those who are secure and off grid. There are too many short cuts and back doors. Expand everything. Are you likely to be attacked?
That's right. The proven way to stand up to a botnet is to have enough capacity to ride it through.
However I would feel a heck of a lot more secure if the "R" in "CERT" meant respond like the fire department and not respond by writing a memo.
