In this article we will discuss how to achieve security of websites and server components of browsers, mobile applications and services that interact with HTTP/HTTPS-based protocols via APIs.
We provide a brief guide that will help to improve the effectiveness of protecting networks and autonomous systems from DDoS attacks. It lists the aspects that should be taken into account.
StormWall team is planning to participate in European Peering Forum (EPF) which will be held from 12 to 14 September in Rome, Italy.
StormWall expects a 130% increase in DDoS worldwide. The new wave of DDoS is forecasted to hit in September 2022 and will be targeted at multiple sectors, although businesses will be affected the most. Based on the data of recent hacktivist activity analyzed by StormWall experts, the DDoS attacks that will take place in the near future, will be some of the most destructive to date.
Although DDoS attacks are mainly carried out with bots, the initiators and coordinators of the attacks are humans. The nature of the attacks, their intensity and duration largely depend on their motivation and behaviors. In this article, we explain why hackers launch DDoS attacks and offer a few recommendations on how to stay safe.
As you know, quality is very rarely cheap. The protection StormWall offers is no exception: we invest thoughtfully to achieve high quality of our DDoS protection service while keeping fair prices - far from the highest on the market. Thanks to the chosen strategy, we offer a very favorable price-quality ratio.
The focus today is not so much on information security (defense against all threats associated with the company's information systems), but on cybersustainability - the ability to minimize the impact of cyber threats on the company and maintain efficiency under the conditions of all kinds of negative impacts caused by different digital environments.
It is very important to clearly define what signs can be used to identify legitimate requests so that the anti-DDoS provider can accurately identify the beginning of an attack on the application and defend against illegitimate requests. Application developers and their customers should have an idea of how a DDoS defender thinks and acts, and ensure up front that it can detect and disable bots.
Owners of Internet resources, trying to protect them from DDoS attacks, often make mistakes that undo their efforts and investments in protection. Perhaps, most dangerous in this case is that organizations that bought a DDoS protection are under the illusion that they are automatically on the safe side.
In late 2021 and early 2022, we faced very strong DDoS attacks. These attacks suddenly stopped on January 11, 2022, shortly after the Internet in Kazakhstan was shut down by local authorities in connection with mass protests in the republic. However, after the Internet started working again in Kazakhstan, the attacks resumed. We have analyzed the characteristics of the attacks observed at the end of last year and in the first half of this year and have come to the following conclusions.
