// HOW MITHRIL WORKS
Distributed Denial of Service or Denial of Service (DoS)
This attacks are becoming easy to perform thanks to “DoS for hire” services also known as “Booter/Stresser” services.
Let’s have an overview of the current situation of DDoS attacks.
Many criminal organizations sell their DoS service for a few dollars a month. Anyone can buy these services to attack any websites on the internet. These kinds of attacks are also known as “Volumetric Attacks’‘ or “Application Layer DoS”.
How does a DDoS attack work?
A criminal sends a lot of HTTP requests and connections to a website exhausting web server resources and making it unreachable by legitimate users. Usually, these connections seem to come from a legit user using a real browser but it isn’t.
How can DDoS attacks be prevented?
Protecting a website from this kind of threat is never easy, because it’s not enough to have a big server that could handle a lot of requests or connections. It’s necessary to recognize Bad Bot from Good Bot and real users. Moreover, it’s essential to block the attack before reaching your website. Therefore, Mithril has a JavaScript challenge that can easily block Bad Bot and block volumetric layer 7 attacks, handling all bad connections and saving your web server from downtime and network costs.
