Special Forums Cybersecurity what is the better way to protect my server from DDos Attack Post 302229807 by FractalizeR on Thursday 28th of August 2008 03:50:11 AM

To have a very basic DDOS protection, I would suggest first installing DDOS Deflate script. It is quite effective from simple (D)DOS attacks. Script itself is here. I wrote a small article on how to install and use it here.

Next step can be installing mod_dosevasive for Apache to get rid of HTTP DDOS attacks.
