Necesitas una botnet, solo $9.00 la hora



Agregando un poco mas de sal al problema de las botnets y del "Attack as a Service (AaaS)" (no se si exista el termino pero ya que esta la moda del computo en la nube) una nota interesante:

Study finds the average price for renting a botnet
http://www.zdnet.com/blog/security/study-finds-the-average-price-for-renting-a-botnet/6528
"Based on an experiment conducted by researchers from VeriSign’s iDefense Intelligence Operations Team, involving 25 different "rent a botnet" underground marketplace propositions, they were able to conclude that the average price for renting a botnet is $67 for 24 hours, and $9 for hourly access."
