Game servers, whether personal or corporate, are attacked, very common and inevitable.
Especially when the game is newly launched, what external pressures will you have to endure? The sudden increase in players, attacks and so on. If you can't bear it, the game may be declared bankrupt. Here we talk about some of the reasons why game servers are constantly being attacked and how to deal with them. the reason
1. Competitors attack your server and make your server unable to run normally. If the game is stuck or all servers are paralyzed by the attack, players will go to competitors to play. Reason 2: Some players in the game are not satisfied with some people in the game, such as GM, and attack the server to vent. Reason three, some fake hacker enthusiasts or beginners, try their hands with the server to see how their skills are. What are the common attack methods?
1. Programs such as website applications have been tampered with. This type of attack mainly uses program vulnerabilities to implant some Trojan horses, tamper with programs, add some black chains or some unrelated things. If attacked in this way, the website application will not be trusted. When detected by some related security software programs, it will prompt a security risk, it will be blocked, and it may not be opened in serious cases. The main ways to deal with this type of attack are as follows:
a. Regularly back up, patch vulnerabilities, change programs, set permissions and update patches
b. Appeal platform, security alliance
c. Often use security software to detect vulnerabilities and deal with them in a timely manner
2. The domain name is attacked. The main methods of this type of attack are the theft of the domain name, the ownership of the domain name, and the transfer of the registrar, and the forged DNS server directs users to the wrong link address. As long as this type of attack occurs, the website application will lose control of the domain name due to the attack, and the domain name will be bound and resolved to the hacker website. Once it is pan-analyzed, the weight will be scattered, causing mistrust of search engines and security platforms , The serious ones will be directly K. The solution to this type of attack is to choose a well-known domain name provider for registration and lock the domain name to prohibit transfer.
3. The most important and common complex DDoS and CC attacks. Their attack principles are: DDoS: Use server technology to unite multiple computers and send DDoS attacks to one or more target game servers at the same time to increase the attack The power of the game server. When the game server is attacked, it will consume and consume the resources of the server, which will seriously cause the game server to be paralyzed, making the game server unable to operate normally. CC: This principle is to continuously send a large amount of data to the game server, so as to consume the resources of the game server and cause its downtime. Note: CC is the main attack page. Attacks like this need to be defended. Use some high-defense servers with defensive attacks to prevent most attacks. Because the current IDC provides specialized defense services for such attacks. Therefore, servers with required defense functions can directly rent high defense servers.
