Common Website Attack Methods

1. DDoS

DDoS, or Distributed Denial of Service, is a type of network attack aimed at rendering a target system unable to provide its normal services. In a DDoS attack, attackers use multiple computers or devices—often a botnet, a network of infected devices—to send an overwhelming number of requests to the target system. This overloads the system's capacity, preventing it from responding to legitimate user requests and ultimately causing the service to become unavailable.

DDoS attacks can take various forms, including UDP flooding, SYN flooding, and HTTP request flooding. Attackers typically utilize a large number of nodes within a distributed network to send these requests, making the attack traffic difficult to distinguish and block.

2. CC Attack

In the realm of cybersecurity, "CC" typically refers to "CC Attack" or "CC Flood Attack," a specific type of DDoS attack.

CC attacks target web servers or network applications. Attackers use a large number of legitimate clients—often controlled by a botnet or malware—to send a massive number of requests to the target server. These requests may be legitimate HTTP or HTTPS requests, but their sheer volume far exceeds the server's processing capacity, leading to server overload or service unavailability.

3. Penetration Testing

Penetration testing, often shortened to "pen testing," is a security assessment method designed to simulate the behavior of attackers to identify and exploit security vulnerabilities in computer systems, networks, or applications. A pen testing team uses various techniques and tools to attempt to breach the target system and gain unauthorized access, thereby assessing the system's security and providing recommendations for improvements.

SafeLine

SafeLine is designed to mitigate HTTP/HTTPS attacks, specifically CC attacks. While it can increase the technical difficulty of penetration attempts, it relies on physical protection provided by data centers to defend against UDP flooding, SYN flooding, and HTTPS saturation attacks in a DDoS scenario. SafeLine offers a low-cost WAF solution, making it a valuable tool for website owners who prefer using backdoor towers and open-source programs to enhance their site's security.
