/EINPresswire.com/ Vigilant Software today announced a new cyber security risk competition to win a free copy of the book Information Security Risk Management for ISO 27001/ISO 27002 worth £39.95.

The competition aims to highlight how apparently easy it could be to potentially bring the internet and all the services that rely on it crashing down, by inviting suggestions on what you could more positively do with 300Gbps of data, the amount that the Swiss-based internet agency Spamhaus’ servers, slowing the internet across Europe, in the world’s largest (to date) DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack.

Suggestions so far include downloading 27 million high definition Harlem Shake videos in an hour.
