P. 504: As far as he could tell, at first, it was a simple Denial of Service attack. A DoS occurred when... But this one was different. Every single packet contained some sort of cracking program ... Most had dumped to the honey trap, but they were running rampant through there, while others had managed to hammer past two firewalls and were getting to his final line of defense. Somebody had managed a zero day exploit on Blowfish. And more were coming in!
