Two more examples of application layer attacks on our customers

Last month, we showed you in the article “DDoS extortion cases on the application layer are starting to appear ” how the extortion and subsequent DDoS attack on a customer’s website takes place.

Cases of application layer DDoS extortion are beginning to emerge

Extortion by DDoS attack is nothing new. Large botnets can carry out a fairly powerful attack nowadays, which can easily clog several 100 Gbps routes(we have already seen this happen). Fortunately, they are relatively rare because they are expensive. Medium attacks (above 10 Gbps) are encountered more frequently (even several times a month). And smaller ones (under 10 Gbps) are almost a daily occurrence. However, this classical kind of brute force attack (in terms of data volume or packet count) is relatively well detected and filtered. It is worse with application layer attacks, such as those that try to pass themselves off as normal traffic.

NoLimit transfer from old servers to new servers has been completed

At the end of 2017, we started using a completely new solution for NoLimit. Everything has moved to the cloud and new servers, where efficient processors no longer mean a lower CPU frequency, but that they run and consume electricity according to the current required performance (they can underclock and overclock). In addition, a proxy server was built in front of the webservers that could automatically cache frequently used content.
