Breakdown of DDOS Attack Prevention

[0xE9]

So you are saying a server would be better to custom tune your DDoS protection abilities. Otherwise you can get a vps and have the same tuning abilities correct or no?, Anyways on a shared host or vps would ddos deflate or a flood-stopping script not work to some extent?, I ask because you are talking about standard DDoS attacks in your main post and did not mention attacks such as http or sloworis and carefully crafted attacks that should be able to be stopped with scripts correct?

Anyways thanks for your helpful post above.

DDoS deflate is useless in the majority of attacks. VPS lines generally range from 10 - 100mb/s So it's easy to overwhelm the connection. For serious DDoS Protection you want a dedicated server, A Hardware firewall and a KVM or some sort of other backup access. The general HTTP floods can be firewalled with a script but slowloris is slightly harder to detect a pattern with.
