Information Needed on Malicious Traffic

From: Piyush Bhatnagar (piyushmeitros.com)

Hi All,

I am doing some research on the amount of malicious traffic on the internet.

In your opinion, what percentage of traffic entering your networks (and on
the internet) would you consider as dirty? By Dirty traffic I mean to refer
to the traffic that is un-desired or malicious which could contain traffic
related to attacks, probes, spam etc.

I have read a few white papers from some security product vendors and the
claims range from 5% to 30%.

Any responses will be welcome.

Thanks,
Piyush
