how to check site for dos attack


AI Overview

To check if your site is under a DoS or DDoS attack, look for sudden spikes in CPU/memory usage, massive traffic surges from unusual IPs, and service latency. You can verify these symptoms instantly by checking your hosting provider's status dashboard, or by running diagnostics on your server.

Key Steps to Check for an Attack
  • Check Server Resource Usage: High CPU and memory usage with normal database metrics often indicate your server is busy handling malicious requests.
  • Run Network Connection Diagnostics: Log into your server and run terminal commands to investigate incoming connections.
    • For Linux, use netstat -an | grep :80 | sort to check for an unusual number of HTTP connections from single IPs.
    • For Windows, run netstat -ano | find /c "80" in the Windows Command Prompt to count connections on port 80.
  • Review Bandwidth and Error Logs: Review your server's access and error logs for spikes in 5xx server errors or overwhelming traffic volumes.
  • Use Monitoring and Mitigation Services:
    • If you use Cloudflare, review your Cloudflare Dashboard for built-in DDoS alerts and traffic analytics.
    • Check the Sucuri SiteCheck scanner to see if your site is accessible from external user-agent checks.
    • Check external tools like Check-Host to verify if your site is timing out globally or from specific regional nodes
 
Long time for page resolving.

A different look when I first signed in and all the recent post are gone form recently posted.

did the site get a roll back ?

Also got some weird message about cookies in the header.

Still needs some work done ....
 
Kan't log in, kan't log out, kan't read posts, kan't read PM's

Shit is really bad out my way ....

One thing to consider is if we are alone on a server of sharing it with other sites.

I can not see us on a individual server, (some private/home run services may offer that option but GoDaddy etc will cram as many as they can on one and you can bet 6 is not even a consideration for a maximum)

If we are sharing with, lets say, 6 other sites, and they are also being bombarded with DOS requests, then our host server is overloaded and laying down on the job. That would mean something entirely different, than just the excessive guest visits we are having clogging up our site.

Only the host can tell us that and they will only deny ....
 
AI Overview

GoDaddy does not publicly disclose the exact number of servers it operates, but it manages an extensive, global infrastructure to support its 20+ million customers and 82+ million domains.

Their infrastructure is anchored by a primary 320,000-square-foot data center in Phoenix, Arizona, which houses tens of thousands of individual servers to support millions of websites.

They also operate multiple leased and colocation data centers across the US (like Chicago, Los Angeles, and Virginia) and internationally (including France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Singapore)
