DDoS protection (anti ddos attack tcp proxy etc)

Asked By John Abbot 0 points N/A Posted on - 03/22/2013

Hi there,

I work in a private security firm that handles confidential data. As a precaution we are required to backup every data that we will be working on. And also we have to work on the data at home when the need arises, and the possibility of being infiltrated are endless and several web based DDoS attacks.

Can anyone please tell me on the necessary precautions to take for DDoS protection i.e. anti ddos attack tcp proxy

 

Thank you.

Hi,

Backing up data is a very crucial part especially for a security firm. DDOSing will only disrupts legitimate users from using the website and it would cost you a lot of bandwidth.

Some of the ways to prevent DDOS attacks are-

1. Configuring your Firewall.

2. Use IPS.

3. Configure switches for bogus IP filtering

Apart from this you can use cloudexity or blockdos to protect your organization from DDOS attacks.
