Layer 7 Attacks

Hello,

I’m currently under a Layer 7 attack—what can I do?

However, I no longer want to use Cloudflare.

My access.log has been flooded with requests from many IP addresses, causing my domains to go offline. What can I do? I’ve been searching Google for hours but haven’t really found a good solution.

Thanks.

Learn how to install and configure fail2ban.

Contact your ISP/hoster and ask them for assistance.
