If you're experiencing a DDoS attack on your regify provider, you may want to know if and how regify can help you on this issue.


Please understand that a DDoS attack is an attack to your company and technically an attack to your infrastructure'.


Technically, a DDoS attack might affect

  • your available bandwidth
  • your hosted machine capabilities (CPU, memory, space)
  • your technical devices like routers, firewalls, other network devices

As a consequence, the regify provider might be unreachable (timeouts) or unresponsive (very slow or timeouts) or displaying error messages.

Unfortunately, we as regify

  • do not have control about your infrastructure.
  • cannot help you identifying the root cause of the inavailability of a system.
  • cannot help you identifying the attacker.
  • do not know any magical switch in our products to stop the attack or the consequences of the attack.

Suggestions

You should contact your hosting provider immediately. Many hosting providers offer DDoS Mitigations or DDoS protection. Maybe they can help you by

  • implementing a DDoS-mitigation-appliance.
  • temporarily providing more bandwidth.
  • temporarily providing more CPU power.

There are also service providers claiming to protect you from DDoS attacks. We do not have any experience in that field but you might want to check the services of vendors like Cloudflare, Acamai, Ribbon, Netscout etc.
