    Thumbs up

    I thought some of you might be interested to know that since the beginning of the month of March 2016, this new Sucuriicon CloudProxy Firewall, has stopped 182 DDos attacks on our site, including 35 last night alone.

    For those of you who are technically minded..

    DDoS is short for Distributed Denial of Service.

    DDoS is a type of DOS attack where multiple compromised systems, which are often infected with a Trojan, are used to target a single system causing a Denial of Service (DoS) attack. Victims of a DDoS attack consist of both the end targeted system and all systems maliciously used and controlled by the hacker in the distributed attack.
