Hi, already a memeber, but thought I should post here anyway. What measures does Linode take to prevent Denial of Service attacks? For example, is there a firewall guarding all of linode? Or is each customer responsible for such things.
If you do nothing, are there steps that Linode customers should take to prevent such things?
Thanks. |

There is no complete solution for protecting against all types of DOS attacks. Suffice to say that we've protected our network as best we can. The end-customer is responsible for protecting their own Linode -- mostly by not doing something that get's them DOS attacked in the first place :wink: That's not the type of community I'd like to have here.
You shouldn't have to perform any additional filtering on your Linode (but you can, of course).
