Website attacks are very common. They are often not personal, but they can create a mess for website operators. As website owners and operators, we need website privacy and security especially if we are collecting data and personal information.
As I was making more money from my business in 2015, the need for better performance became an issue. I also needed to be able to keep my site up 24/7 and not have to deal with outages. My website started getting sustained 500-bit denial service attacks. I realized very quickly that this was not my expertise, but that is when I began my partnership with Cloudflare.
Cloudflare provides services that increase the security performance of over 26 million internet properties around the world from individual blogs to governments to Fortune 500 companies. Cloudflare offers services to accelerate internet applications and mobile experiences, mitigate DDoS attacks, prevent customer data breaches, stop malicious bot abuse, and more.
Our guests on today’s show are John Graham and Evan Johnson. John Graham is a British software engineer and the current CTO at Cloudflare. Evan is a Product Security Manager at Cloudflare.
We talk about attacks on websites, distributed denial of service attacks, and how to protect your own website. If you want to keep your website up and running without skipping a beat, this is a must-listen episode.
