[Cialug] July Meeting: ComSec Strategies

[Scott Yates]

Interestingly, the images server is returning "502: Bad Gateway" now.  I
wonder if that might be a targeted attack looking for a specific IP.

whois also seems suspicious:

Registrant ID:DYNSREG109652
Registrant Name:Secret Registration Customer ID 109652 ompldr.org
Registrant Organization:Secret Registration



etc...
