Several crypto companies and media outlets suffered multiple DDoS attacks in November. The clear reasons for such attacks are unknown but it can be assumed that trespassers wanted to have some ransom from the companies or they simply don't like crypto. CoinTelegraph was under attack along with several other companies, such as Kraken, Cryptsy, CoinDeskCT r:  9, CCN and others. It is obvious that all online businesses need to protect their sites from DDoS attacks. CoinTelegraphCT r:  32 decided to share some tips on how to do it.

DDoS attacks are becoming more frequent as lots of crypto companies and media outlets work through the Internet without paying much attention to the protection of their servers. The easiest way to do that is to buy some anti-DDoS solutions, offered by many companies, such as CloudFlare or Incapsula. BitcoinCT r:  7 security expert Ivan Tikhonov told CoinTelegraph:

"There are lots of anti-DDoS services but they are paid. And people start rushing to get one only after they have suffered an attack and money loss. I think people should get such services in advance if they realize the risk of DDoS is high and the amount of potential loss exceeds the cost of protection".
