Improve defence against DDOS

[Jawaani]

Here are some tricks from my side, dunno what your team came up with:

1. Disable API on players' end for some time to prevent further damage.
Or integrate combined API (with 2fa/password)

2. Temporarily take stake down and integrate captcha verification checkpoint for alls services' access, solving captcha should give access till page refresh or 4 hrs lease(or your specified time), this will stop most attacks, also make sure to keep a captcha created by stake only, other captchas can be bypassed with their APIs.

3. Ban all unknown ip address temporarily.

4. Have to put ip filter on like gather player's ips, if genuine players' ipv4 g address for example is: 192.168.254.200 whitelist 192.168.1.1 - 192.168.254.254 range
And similar for all known ips(based on genuine users), later this can be modified for ddos detection

More mitigation defense tools are there with cloudflare(your hosting)

Later after setup,  digital forensics can analyse and try to find what was exploited to compromise stake for ddos.

Happy Staking!!

Hoping for a interruption-free weekend stream
