It is also important to be able to track the overall trend. Stats on volumetric DDoS attacks are not a good indicator, since they depend on other factors like number and amplification capabilities of reflectors and botnet parameters. I doubt that without good measurements and traceability we can effectively address this problem. Having said that I do not think Atlas can really help. Atlas can only offer a fraction of devices that can effectively spoof (although I heard that not every NAT device prevents spoofing for any IP range). And its deployment is not uniform, so the results won't be more statistically representative than those from Spoofer (http://spoofer.caida.org/). Sigh... Andrei
