Hi all, Can anybody suggest me a good script for flood protection using php. I prefer not to use cookies and sessions. PHP and MySQL can be used.
Have a look for floodgate. I done a search for 'PHP DDOS Floodgate' and found some cool scripts. To be honest though, if you want to prevent denial of service attacks - by the time PHP is fired up, it will be too late. It should be implemented as low level as possible (IP layer or lower), your firewall should have picked it up and dropped the packet before Apache even sees it.
