This article will explain in detail what is the difference between DOS attacks and DDOS attacks. The content of the article is of high quality, so the editor will share it with you for reference. I hope you will have some understanding of the relevant knowledge after reading this article.

Both DDOS and DOS attacks make computers or networks unable to provide normal services; the difference between DDOS and DOS is that DDOS is a distributed denial of service, which combines multiple computers as an attack platform to launch DDoS attacks against one or more targets, thus multiplying the power of denial of service attacks.

How to prevent DOS attack and DDOS attack

1. Adequate bandwidth resources

Bandwidth directly determines the ability to resist DDOS attacks, at least 100m bandwidth should be chosen, the more the better.

2. Hardware configuration of the server

Under the premise that the bandwidth and traffic are fully guaranteed, the hardware configuration of the server must keep up. Of course, the main factors are CPU and memory.

3. Standardize your own operation settings

The main defense capability against DOS and DDOS attacks depends on the server and the computer room itself. However, for our users, we also need to do safe operation. For example, do not upload unfamiliar files with special suffixes to the server, do not click on links of unknown origin, and do not install software of unknown origin, so as to prevent the server from being attacked due to operational problems. At the same time, it is best to regularly scan the files of the website, so that new loopholes and virus files can be found and cleaned in time.

4. Configuration of firewall in computer room

Generally speaking, if the firewall is configured in the backbone node, it can effectively resist DOS and DDOS attacks. Because when the firewall finds that it is attacked, it can direct the attack to some "useless" servers, which can protect the running server from being attacked.

This is the difference between DOS attack and DDOS attack. I hope the above content can be helpful to you and learn more. If you think the article is good, you can share it for more people to see.
