There have been a lot of questions on here about Dos and DDoS attacks... One thing I've never seen a good answer for is... aside from never downloading peer uploaded files is there a way to protect yourself from stubs. Will malwarebytes find them with a basic scan?
I know there are ways to protect any server you have from such attacks but I don't understand how that works? Even if the server blocks the attacking IP's the server still has to respond or view the package in some way correct?
