I realized this afternoon that I've not checked Brian Krebs' blog for a few days so I tried to access www.krebsonsecurity.com. This pointed to localhost, not his web site.
A web search revealed that yesterday his site suffered a massive DDoS attack, apparently from a IOT botnet. But, his site is supposedly up and running. So why can't I access it? When I ping the URL it returns localhost. 'host krebsonsecurity.com krebsonsecurity.com' tells me it has address 127.0.0.1. traceroute shows the same thing: 1 localhost (127.0.0.1) 0.016 ms 0.003 ms 0.003 ms I would appreciate someone explaining why I might be seeing these results and offer ideas how I might once again reach his web site.
