I'm looking at a site named the "digital attack map" (dot com).
There's one attack that lists an attack at some near 80 Gbps inbound.

Some questions. Maybe I've just been lucky... but,
A) /Seriously/ ? 80 Gbps ?
B) Other than dropping routes / changing DNS and "filtering at the borders"
are there controls that operators employ that help mitigate multi-Gbps
attacks?
I understand if - by the nature of talking about it, 'we' give attackers
insight, so I'm willing to entertain private discussions; However, this
seems to be a semi appropriate place as a catalyst.
I'd be interested in a discussion, a ML, or resources that any people can
provide, via this list or off list.
