Subject: How to protect apache benchmarking attack ?
Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2010 14:51:59 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4B4C3F37.9010703@infoservices.in> (raw)
Hello all,
I am dared to see what "ab" (apache benchmarking too) can do against an
apache server. I have used the following against my server to check
call handling
` ` `
ab -n 1000 -c 20 http://<site-name>/index.php?no_cache=1
` ` `
and it simply bottle neck the target apache server. the target server
is also over loaded with huge cpu load. Is there any precaution to
prevent this ? the target system is already protected with
mod_security.
Thanks
