Hello nanogers, Following the multiple thread on ddos attack, I was asking myself how someone could test chosen solutions. In most cases, you can't load your Internet access in the same way attackers will (does someone have a botners with ten thousands computers or more :) ?) But a solution to test basic attack (synflood, slowloris, socktress, ...) with 10 to hundred computers would be interesting, so not a tool but more a service. Found only Parabon [1] on Google Does someone know something similar ? Thanks Best regards, Jul Note: Please, don't forget this kind of public tests have some serious legal impact and you need to have an agreement with your ISP/operators to do it in most countries. Note2: Google has a lot of answers. Most of them are about tool and methodology, so not sure for a live test. I'm not looking for a lab solution but real one with business acceptation (and a wise choice on the hours of the test so front-end can be switch to "maintenance mode") [1] New grid service simulates DDoS attacks, May 2009 http://www.computerworlduk.com/technology/security-products/business-continuity/news/index.cfm?newsId=14640
