\nThe World Wide Web presents itself as a useful source of information for people around the globe. However, if we look at the other side of the coin, it is full of cyber threats. There resides malware in the form of viruses, spyware, spamming content and the list goes on…We all know that! But have you ever thought from where and how these threats come into the web and attack online users? The technology behind this is bulletproof hosting which is also known as bulk-friendly hosting.<\/p>\n

So what is Bulletproof Web Hosting Service?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Well, before we delve deeper into this technology, let me give you a brief about how a regular hosting service works. The majority of Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have standard Terms and Services under which they do not allow a certain type of online materials to be uploaded or broadcasted online. This is done in order to minimize the risk of their IP subnet being suspended or blocked by anti-spam filters.<\/p>\n

However, when it comes to a bulletproof hosting service, there is considerable leniency in terms of the type of material which is uploaded and distributed. This is where spammers, hackers, and online attackers take the advantage. Therefore, bypassing the laws, some domain hosting firms allow activities like spamming, phishing<\/a>, online gambling, illegal pornography, etc.<\/p>\n

How to Stop Bulletproof sites Attack You?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Using a Web proxy is an effective way to only allow connections that are approved and block the ones with newly registered domains (such domains are a strong indication of a bulletproof hosting attack).<\/li>\n
  • Malware makes use of Domain Name Server (DNS) to trace IP addresses so as to connect to websites hosted at bulletproof hosts. Therefore, DNS monitoring techniques should be used to identify systems that are connected to a malicious website and can be blocked.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
