  1. Top 5 Reasons To Choose South Africa VPS Hosting Introduction South Africa is a developing nation with an average internet speed. Working on a shared server in South Africa might be an outdated trend. You need a better server like South Africa VPS Hosting to take benefit of the growing South African economy. It does not matter whether you have an average visitor count or high web traffic on your website; a VPS suits everyone. The virtual separation and private server space on the main servers add up to the extra security layer. Mostly servers are targeted through DDoS attacks which disrupt the usual traffic of the website. This hosting has a plethora of benefits, and one can be assured of data security. If you don't like spending more money on the same features, then go for the South Africa VPS hosting. Check out this article for a detailed view of VPS and DDoS attacks. We will also give you some tips to safeguard your server from such cyber attacks.

  2. What is a DDoS Attack? A DDoS attack is a cyber attack that primarily targets genuine website traffic. A swarm of fake visitor traffic enters the website and creates havoc. This type of attack is more frequent on servers that do not have a proper monitoring system. A VPS has an automated monitoring system that prevents such attacks. DDoS attacks are fired in various ways, such as targeting a single page, making a bunch of spammy requests to the server, etc. The reason hackers target a website through such attacks is to corrupt or steal the website's data. This type of attack also results in the loss of genuine website traffic. Just like you tend to take a back step and find new route when you are stuck in a traffic jam. Common Types of DDoS Attacks in South Africa Distributed Denial of Service or DDoS works in a variety of ways, and some of them are really very complex. Have a quick look at all those types to have a better understanding of such cyber attacks. Application Layer Attack This process involves targetting a website through fake requests on a huge scale to load a particular web page. This leads to the server being overwhelmed with similar requests without any reason. The server eventually loses its touch and is unable to serve the genuine requests too. This leads to a longer waiting time in loading the website, and the actual user gets annoyed and shifts to a new website in search of related data. ● Protocol Attack This type of process targets the technical part of a server. The server needs a security handshake before passing on the information to any other computer. This handshake is completed with the approval of SYN packets. A protocol attack simply asks for the information, gets an SYN packet in return from the server, and does not sends it back to the server as approval. This leads to the server waiting in vain. ● Volumetric Attack This is the most common process to target a website through a DDoS attack. A large number of fake user traffic enters the website and disrupts the genuine traffic. This leaves the website vulnerable to data corruption too. ●

  3. Tips To Protect Your South Africa VPS Server From DDoS Attacks A VPS server is better than a shared server in terms of data security. The web resources are not shared on a VPS server, while the clients of a shared server use web resources as per availability. DDoS attacks evolve regularly and require a robust system to prevent them.
