Final Fantasy 14 Once Again Targeted By DDoS Attacks

A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is a harmful attempt to crash a server by overwhelming it with a huge amount of traffic. Attackers usually use a network of compromised devices – often called “bots” – to send a flood of fake requests to the target server. A single attacker can control this bot network and use it to disrupt service for real users. While it’s impossible to completely protect a server from a DDoS attack, some services, like Final Fantasy 14, can lessen the impact of the attack by filtering out the malicious traffic.
