Denying Service to DDoS Protection Services - Migo - 08-06-2015
Got this from a buddy of mines' thread on another forum and I thought it was a really good video.
Here is also a blog post about the security concerns using CloudFlare. Couldn't put it into this thread because it would be super long - but seriously guys check it out. Really good info here. Practically everyone I know with a forum uses CloudFlare.

Like you said, it's really easy to block DDoS attacks if you know what you're doing.
I can see if someone is using a shared server and needs free DDoS protection but if you have a Dedi / VPS then you have to change the game yourself.

Good video.
Cloudflare sucks unless you decide to pay.. what now 2000$ or something for BGP network protection? Not a feasable option. If anyone has trouble resolving a CF site, let me know. I have private tools which can resolve most of them, probably except of course BGP. Same goes for other providers too, using DNS based mitigation is not a good idea. DNS was not designed for that.
Related, there's also ways to mitigate and stop attacks at application level. It might not work stand-alone but I would be very sure it helps.

Damn. CloudFlare is useless I've seen many websites using it and still ending up getting DDoS'ed. There are also many bypasses to it.
