This Week in Net: Why DDoS attacks and BPF tails are important

from This Week in NET Hosted by Cloudflare TV

Welcome to our weekly review of stories from our blog and elsewhere, from products, tools and announcements to disruptions on the Internet. In this week’s program, João Tomé is joined by our CTO, John Graham-Cumming, with two topics at hand. We start with about a programming-deep dive we did in our blog where we unveil a few secrets behind BPF tail calls on x86 and ARM. Then, we discuss the importance of the “old” DDoS attacks that continue to grow and to create problems for companies (we published Cloudflare’s DDoS threat report 2022 Q3 this week). Read the blog posts: Assembly within! BPF tail calls on x86 and ARM Cloudflare DDoS threat report 2022 Q3
