Latest update

*** CASCADED EXTERNAL NOTES 13-Feb-2014 09:07:11 GMT From CASE: 7538219 -
Event Security Ops attempted to apply filters on the network routers to
reject the IP traffic of the DDoS attacks.  However, the filters were
unsuccessful due to the multiple sources of the attack.  Security is
attempting another plan to limit the effect of the attack on the targeted
destination of the DDoS attack.
