Yeah, I forgot about IDS in my reply further up. Web Application Firewalls or Intrusion Detection Systems might have saved this, or they might have just slowed the attackers down.
Also, re: blacklisting DDoS...hahaha, against a real botnet, good luck with that. I could take down RioRey in 30 seconds if I wanted to right now (google "slowloris.pl") by myself. Kind of hilarious seeing as they sell DDoS protection. All the DDoS prevention in the world can't stop crazy traffic with real-world-emulating usage patterns. It literally is indistinguishable from legitimate traffic if done correctly...just ask paypal.
- devicenull 15y agoslowloris is in no way a DDoS. It's going to take a competent sysadmin about a minute to find and block the attack. If you've got a gigabit attack, that's a lot harder to block then one person with a misbehaving client.
