Hi all,
During yesterday's takedown of the Internet [1] it has become
painstakingly obvious that the ability to distinguish malicious packets
in a quick and efficient manner is one of the most pressing security
concerns of today.
Thus, RFC3514 (a.k.a. "evil" bit) [2] support was implemented [3] in
the Linux kernel today.
It is our hope that other operating systems and network devices will
follow the suite soon and help us make Internet a safer and more
welcoming place for everyone!
Martin
