Regarding the recent 'DoS attack'....

The only real way to protect from it is to refuse all connections ;)

Although, the webserver should be setup to stop high frequency connections from the same endpoint, that should help mitigate the effect.
That's the brute force way of controlling DoS attacks.

There are scalable options as well.

We need to build a fence. All around RIU. Otherwise, be afraid, be very afraid.
We can make GC pay for it. Believe me.

Would have been a laughing gif, because that was frickin hilarious. Unicorn text art will have to do, it's the thought that counts.

Yeah, they're fucking uptight weirdos. I definitely got the alt-right white kid/middle-aged repub mod vibe.
After around TEN 'warnings' I decided to split...

Are they heart flowers?

You don't belong here, your soul still has basic human kindness, leave here before you lose it forever.

(Don't actually leave, I think you're witty and good people).

The problem is that most DDoS attacks exploit the underlying TCP handshake protocol so there is no "active connection" to refuse.

Absolutely right. However prior to the point of any active connections being held hostage a well managed proxy on a well balanced cluster can help mitigate those high volume requests. And so in its basic form, you are right, DoS attack connections at some point would begin to be refused. And for god sakes, people need to stop using IIS and/or Apache.

Far more efficient to write a relatively general and lightweight web server once and then just customise it to your required spec for each job.

What you say is true, but is very rarely the case ;)

Right? It's fucking scary how Bucky has touched so many lives that they are still talking about their personal experiences from years ago.

I can't believe how much this place is hated around the web.
