ServerMatrix FloodGuard Explained
Last
Updated:
May 4, 2009
When implemented prior to an attack Floodguard will 'learn' your dedicated servers "normal" traffic patterns. This will help floodguard sense a DDOS or Syn Flod. It takes approx. 1 week for Floodguard to 'learn' your dedicated servers normal traffic. ServerMatrix provides other methods to mitigate a DDOS and Syn Flood on "lage scale", however FloodGuard is used to help you if your server/site is a specific target of attack.
Currently if your dedicated server is a specific target you must pay ServerMatrix $250 for the 'damages. Now if you have floodguard this isn't true. You will not be held reliable for the $250 if you have floodguard. Floodguard is basically an insurance against a $250 bill.
Now even though you have FLoodGuard your server is not DDOS or Syn. Flood proof. With saying that if you challenge someone and they attack your server and ServerMatrix finds out you may be held liable for the damges.
