"I am particularly proud of the TCP protocol handler. I solved the problem
of vulnerability to local resource depletion from denial of service (DoS)
attack flooding by designing a "stateless connection opening" technology
named "GENESIS". Unlike all traditional (and DoS vulnerable) TCP/IP stacks,
GENESIS is able to accept and complete inbound connections without needing
to keep any "state" information. Thus there are no resources to exhaust when
gazillions of inbound connections are being spoofed and never completed, or
completed but never used."

"He dares to call it "GENESIS" (Gibson's ENcryption-Enhanced Spoofing
Immunity System). He dares to call it "Beautiful and Perfect." It's the
product of "Three Key Innovations" for which he takes credit and which
culminate in an "Encrypted Token," which is another way of saying a
"SYNcookie", a quite useful thing developed by Dan Bernstein and Eric Schenk
back in 1996.

He dares to claim "immunity" from SYN floods. Only Steve Gibson's lame
knockoff is dangerously broken. "
