Dots -- List for discussion of DDoS Open Threat Signaling (DOTS) technology and directions.

 

About Dots
English (USA)

DDoS Open Threat Signaling (DOTS) is a method by which a device or application participating in DDoS mitigation may signal information related to current threat handling to other devices or applications. The devices/applications may reside locally or in remote systems. The purpose of this list is to discuss the technology, directions and potential standardization of DOTS. Initially DDoS mitigation is the focus, but open threat signaling could apply to other threat types in future.
