The dishonor of Blue Security
`There was quite a bit of teeth gnashing across the web throughout the evening yesterday as TypePad, LiveJournal, and all the other hosted Six Apart websites went dark; we learned late in the night that the cause was a �sophisticated distributed denial of service attack� against the sites. Digging a little deeper, though, it doesn�t look like this is a particularly accurate description of what happened � but instead of this being a case of the folks at Six Apart trying to cover up some internal issue, it instead looks like they�re being far too gracious in not revealing more about another company, Blue Security, which appears to have been responsible for the whole disaster.’
