Renewed DDoS attacks on US and South Korean websites

by Mahran Amona

North Korea is blamed for a series of massive DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) attacks on government and commercial websites in US and South Korea.
These politically motivated attacks first began on Saturday July 04, Independence Day in the US; following is a list of the US and South Korean websites targeted so far.

The latest cyber attacks remind us of the attacks against Georgian government websites last year during its conflict with Russia over South Ossetia (See our blog post).

Does anyone know what the ip addresses are that were used in the attack? Id like to check and make sure it was none of ours and block the same addresses.

@ Scott :

You really want to block 20.000-30.000 individual IP addresses ? That will be quite a lot of work. Also it will be quite pointless, given the fact that it is a targetted attack against specific systems....
