The more you do post-incident, the better your prep for the next one in terms of minimizing impact.

Welcome to the club. Not one you really want to be in, but it happens. I have not had to do a DDoS incident response yet, but have done a few incident response to other things that have made the news. I remember my first was in a medium sized town, company hit over the weekend. We got sent out and got to town late Monday. In the morning doing the hotel breakfast I see the company on the morning news. They were one of if not the largest employer in the town, and had sent everyone home Monday and didn't expect to recall anyone Tuesday.

If you haven't already document everything you remember. Especially anything you did to try to handle the incident if it worked or not. One is for identifying anything weird that shows up in the next few weeks from changes made during the incident. Two is for the next time it happens.

Did you all see the NIH DDoS attack in the news from last weekend? It was a big deal, and happened on my watch.  I spent 25 hours between Sat/Sun battling that crap.

Yeah, best to not run the EXE in case the forums are taken over by shill accounts. There's nothing really looking hard at AI development processes, so they are prime targets for supply chain attacks.

My brother turned me on to brighteon.ai, its a AI that is trying to preserve the "old ways" of doing and knowledge quote from the site it's a "set of critical human knowledge about food, nutrition, farming, permaculture, herbs, indigenous medicine, alternative medicine, off-grid survival, sustainability and other critical knowledge areas that have kept human civilization alive."

most interesting database of knowledge, Personally I couldn't get the self extracting .exe to run, so I downloaded the .gguf file and have successfully launched the .gguf in Ollma for windows 64bit. I Tried LM Studio, but my Norton AV said there was a virus in the LMstudio.exe, forums said it was a false alert, but I didn't want to take a chance.

I don't have an ASA anymore so I can't test, but I found this in the configuration guide. It looks pretty straight forward, but we all know how that goes.

Does the ASA even support OSPFv3 routing with IPSEC? I'm coming up with that being a feature only on XE systems.

no, no it was all very basic OSPF V2 routing, between firewalls and another page for routers, same of OSPF v3, some basic non-authenticated OSPF routing between firewalls and routers.  Cisco TAC wouldn't help either, their response was that TAC was for break fix scenarios not for verifying or proposing new configurations,  I have a scheduled maintenance, supposedly with TAC to troubleshoot, but the dolt never showed up, didn't answer his email, and didn't have Voicemail. his manager got an earful the next morning.
