  1. Hi, Changing request per second is secondary solution. I want to stop those request touch my network, have tried those rules and verified but not getting any result. Thanks and pls let me know for all the suggestion. Sam
  2. Hi, We tried CISCO Pix hardware firewall for 5 months however they are not able to stop the pattern at which they are blasting the site. I will look for the second option too since money is not an issue. Can you please pass on more details for second and third option. Also following are updates i have done to server. I Scanned the server with rootkit antispyware, no infection found. Regarding the firewall, put on BFD firewall over APF, still requests are not getting down. Also IP table is getting full of new ips and it keeps network slow. Please advice. Sam
  3. Hi, Ya, have a real problem but we will not to solve it. Any specific firewall you know which can stop URL specific request? Unfortunately we are not able to find anything right now? Sam
  4. Hi, We have updated the firewall for few IP rules but in vain. Also 2-3 questions that have come to us are can it be a Virus or any malware which causes this? We have the antivirus installed on our dedicated server and its saying server is fine, however, if needed we can try for new ones no matter for paid ones. I am still doubting for any php code which can cause such things but I am not able to find anything regarding this. however, we are trying and of anyone has any suggestion, please share them with us. Thanks Sam
  5. Hi, I just had a long meeting with my technical team and following are the updates. 1) SYN cookies is already Enable but not making much difference. 2) I will provide the packet details soon for the request to give the extra idea for the attack. 3) Following are the details I have got from my linux admin. This will help you to trace the issue in better way.

  6. Hi All, For the last 6 months our site has been under severe brute force, syn flood attack. They keep bombarding a single URL of the server and it is xml file. They are not attacking any other URL. e.g. http://www.example.com/rss123/attackedfilename.xml We have removed the xml page from our site but still they keep on sending requests, this is for the last 6 months non stop. The IP has been changed just to see and they are sending several thousand requests per second. The requests come from different IPS and different ranges, so you can not even block the IP’s. They seem to be coming from a legitimate IP’s. Due to this I have had to pay for an extremely expensive server which holds 8 GB of RAM and quad core processor etc, however, even with this the server still reaches critical level, just because these requests are eating up my resources. Our technical team has been working on all aspects of apache server security, external modules, firewall, hardware firewall from beginning but still we are not able to stop them. We have installed following modules. 1) mod_security 2) mod_evasive 3) Firewall We have worked with the hosting company and their technical team leader, he installed the best CISCO hardware firewall and tried to stop them, but in vain. We have checked our server to see if anything from our site is causing the request, no extra file uploaded on to the server. For example if some file has been upload or some text has been added to the file (checked if we’ve been hacked). Even though we checked for any hacks, I am still wondering if there is something we do not know about. Can a hack lead to huge amounts of traffic? We need some help to stop these attacks. We have searched a lot and have found that sites that get attacked like this have only one option is to shut down till it stops. I really hope that will not be the case for us. Please let us know if any one has any ideas to deal with this. We are willing to try any small suggestion which might help from coding to scripting to modules to firewall. So please provide suggestion/solutions and way to get us out of this. Also could it be our own part of php code which can do this? We are ready to check every php file to make sure it does not have any line of code which can be dangerous? Thank you for your help in advance! Help! Regards, Sam
