The amount of attacks our little site gets hit with day and night is just crazy. To think that for years we ran just fine with almost no security service or firewall in place shows just how much more "dangerous" the internet has become in terms of keeping a site online and safe from hacks/ddos attacks.
If we had gotten hit with any one of these just a few months ago we would have been offline for weeks. Now we take hundreds and sometimes thousands of attacks per day without so much as breaking a sweat.. :D
Here is just a small example of what we've been hit with in the last few hours. Each one of these is a malicious attack looking for any vulnerability. We've had to implement a ton of time and resources (firewalls and security software) to get to the point where these constant attacks no longer have any effect on us. I cannot imagine what the massive sites like amazon and facebook have to deal with. Must be billions of attacks per day.
