If they are getting DDoSed, there's not much you can do to stop it.
The only "defense" against a DDoS attack that I've ever heard of is to offload all the incoming junk data onto a dummy server, but that only gets you so far. Either the dummy server(s) gets overloaded and puts you back at square one, or the attackers find out they're on a dummy server and and make changes to try and get around it.
It's a never ending battle until the ones responsible are caught.
Well they need to tell us what is going on instead of leaving us all guessing. Most companies use twitter to do so our their official forums. I am fine with whatever issues they may be having be is DDosed or poor server performance. I am not fine with being left in the dark about it for hours/days on end. All they need to do is make a post or tweet stating this is what is happening and this is the ETA for the fix. If it is a poor server problem then let us know when you plan to upgrade etc. Communication goes a long way. Being silent about the status of service people have paid for is not ok.0 -

Perhaps, however im leaning the other way - the fault is with Zos.
Most big websites and online games face prospect of ddos every day yet manage to not keep going down. If it is a ddos then something is up with their network security. I would guess that wow, ff get hit far more often but you don't hear many tales of them going down so often. Although I have no evidence, other than running web servers, personally feel that ddos is being used as an easy excuse to hide much larger problems with the servers and networks. As I say, I cannot prove it, just a feeling. I do know, however, that if my organisations servers were this unreliable I would be seeking a new host asap
The entire east coast was hit with a DDoS attack Friday and through the weekend . ZOS is on the east coast . Check the news .0 -
