Inititially software solutions were thought to be an unlikely means of eradicating
DDOS attacks as standalon defence systems, because of the exploitation of hardware weaknesses, and the vast nature and bandwidth utilized for these massive invasions.
Today there are two main approaches to solving DDos attacks. The one relies heavily
on Hi-Tech Hardware solutions such as Cisco Guard and Toplayer devices..
These are very expensive to implement.
The other less expensive solution requires a tri-plex approach involving software, hardware and personally managed servers (24/7)
For most small busines and homebusiness web sites, the costs of either of these two solutions is prohibitive, and has already forced many out of business
