Title: DDOS attack prevention in linux servers
Post by: ndimensionz on January 05, 2015, 08:46:54 AM
A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is one in which a bunch of compromised systems attack the target machine/server, thereby causing denial of service for users of the targeted system. The flood of incoming messages to the target system essentially forces it to shut down, thereby denying service to the system to legitimate users.

The most common method of attack is to send a mass saturation of requests for external communication to the target server. These systems are flooded with requests for information from non-users, and often non-visitors to the website. The goal of this attack is to create a large enough presence of false traffic such that legitimate web traffic intended for actual web users is slowed down and delayed. If this type of service becomes too slow, time sensitive information such as live video footage may be rendered entirely useless to legitimate end users.

I'd like to say that Hostplay.com (http://Hostplay.com/) is what all companies should strive for when it comes to customer service and support.
I know my limits and don't have to worry about violating any unwritten terms of service. Overall, a good host, and enjoyable to use.

I suggest to go with Maxihost.com.br which is the best webhost which plans are featured and low-cost. They are providing stable DDoS protected servers and round the clock available support.

Hi,

Actually this hosting provider is protected against DDOS ?
