A major incident on a campus is in effect a DOS attack, which
can very quickly become a DDOS attack as the impact spreads
and key resources are diverted from their day jobs to assist.
What may seen as a simple fire in a waste bin, could end up
becoming a major incident affecting large portions of the
campus, surrounding community and businesses.
