Accuracy vs. Precision in Testing

Posted under: ,

Anyone who has ever compared the IP service traffic on a network with what the standards say is supposed to be happening will find less than perfect agreement. Standards define the structures and semantics of services and underlying protocols and all the associated terminology, but are only a snapshot of a moment in time.

Posted under: , ,

Verifying Service Readiness with DoS (part 1 of 2)

Posted under: , , , , ,

Recently one of my European colleagues fielded a pretty important customer question about our Denial of Service module’s relevancy to the telecom industry.
