A flurry of powerful attacks had internet experts baffled. Benjamin Brundage had a few tricks to help solve the Kimwolf mystery.

First, what Cloudflare does is hard and I want to start with that.

That being said, I think it’s worth a discussion. How much of the last 3 outages were because of the JGC (the former CTO) retiring and Dane taking over?

Did JGC have a steady hand that’s missing? Or was it just time for outages that would have happened anyway?

Dane has maintained a culture of transparency which is fantastic, but did something get injected in the culture leading towards these issues? Will it become more or less stable since JGC left?

Curious for anyone with some insight or opinions.

(Also, if it wasn’t clear - huge Cloudflare fan and sending lots of good vibes to the team)

looks cool - would be nice if it could view by city.

nice job!

great idea and execution!

Noticed several of the great domains it recommended were already taken tho

Another great post Ian!

If any researcher here needs data or help to do investigations like this please reach out to me chris at securitytrails.com - we're trying to hone the tools to be as useful as possible with as little effort.

hey Josh - just want to throw it out there that we love baremetrics.

serious question: does anyone think this is a good idea? is there an argument that this could be a good thing?

are you using http or https? following redirects? how many? This is all going to change the study.

Some other notes: 1) you're not checking subdomains like blog.company.com or paths like company.com/blog 2) if you use something like zgrab you can do 1M site crawl in a couple of hours. Consider checking it out.

you have to use a larger sample. There are 300M+ domains. The longer tail will surely have more wordpress in it.

Can someone explain how revocations work? how many there are? what the rules are - etc?
