Request for Assistance – Ongoing Server Impersonation & DDoS Issue
-
Eldor unfortunately hes gone back to DDosing our servers offline once they fill up along with other servers to fill his up but im guessing theres nothing that can be done about that?
Our service provider has ddos protection but they are saying hes using something stronger then they can handle.
once again any help would be highly appreciated

Sheik DDoS attacks will eventually happen on almost any public server, whether it's on the Plutonium client or Steam, etc. The Plutonium team and maintainers can't stop the attacks themselves, but they can suggest effective ways to protect against them. If your current DDoS protection isn't good enough to mitigate the attacks and your server keeps getting hit (especially once it starts filling up with players), it's time to look for better solutions. A good recommendation is using a reverse proxy instead of directly exposing the IP address of your server. This helps hide your real server IP and adds an extra layer of protection. Also, make sure to look for better DDoS protection against stronger attacks. Basic DDoS protection can barely mitigate even the free stressers.

Eldor The same guy that stole Sheik's servers and then started DDoS'ing subsequent servers is now doing it again. He currently owns the K2 servers.
