The HTTP_FloodControl package can be used to detect and protect a
|
||
|
|
Web site from attempts to flood it with too many requests. It also allows to
|
||
|
|
protect the site from automatic downloading many pages or files from the same
|
||
|
|
IP address, session ID or other unique identifier.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The detection of flood is determine according to a set of parameters indicating
|
||
|
|
the maximal allowed number of requests for the certain time interval. It is
|
||
|
|
possible to set several parameters at once in order to perform more effective
|
||
|
|
protection.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The package uses various storage containers (regular files, DB, MDB, MDB2) to
|
||
|
|
handle counter logs.
