*weak security
One can scan the whole IPv4 address space in probably an hour, so you'll find any service you want to find. You might say, "I have a CDN in front of it", but that is just basic firewalling (or reverse proxying) and not really worth of being called "IP obfuscation".
- lwansbrough 8y agoFirewall only lets in traffic from the CDN, so you wouldn’t find anything. It’s almost like making sure this can’t happen is my job.
- gsich 8y agoYes, that's what I wrote.
- hamandcheese 8y agoPresumably the CDN would be whitelisted and scanners would therefore be unable to determine which of the many unresponsive IPs host the service in question. It may be weak security to keep a bit of cash in my cars glovebox rather than in plain sight, but let me tell you how effective it is at keeping my windows from getting smashed...
