Internet Traffic Analysis: This has long been a major topic at NANOG. I have heard several interesting discussions concerning tracking where spikes in the infrastructure are coming from, and their destinations. Here and Here. I am more curious about a seismic like data concerning massed DDoS attacks. Symantec has a product called deepsight similar to what I am thinking about, not sure whether there are other vendors with similar products.
I am interested in seeing a database that has remote probes scattered across the internet colo'd at prime target destination subnets collecting and analyzing inbound traffic. The model looks like a worldwide IDS, learning about new traffic and attacks as they are being assembled. The idea needs some more work. Just rolling it around in my head at the moment.

Schneier has often commented on what a trickly problem this can be...especially when the root servers are getting hit...
