Hello, i have some questions.
I'm going open a ragnarok server but they are hackers who already told me they are going to hack my server....
I need some help for the vps and preventing ddos and sql injection.
First is my choice on the VPS:
VULTR BUILD:
Actually i took a vultr server at 40 $ months with windows server 2012. The DDoS protection cost +10$
80 GB SSD $20/mo $0.03/h 2 CPU 4096MB Memory 3000GB Bandwidth
This is the actual config that i have.
OVH BUILD:
I want to know if taking : OVH with this config is actually better ? cost 28 $/ months but without ssd , and less GB, apparently the protection is already in the 28$
RAM
4 GB
Cores
2
Disk
50 GB
My server is going to have ~ 300 people connected on. Is the SSD is a must have ? Does the ddos protection that ovh provides is going to help me to secure my server ?
I want know more about security, what can i do for protecting my server from DDOS and SQL ?
I'll buy and use gepard shield, before opening the server. But i think i'll need some more secure, do you have any tips ? i'm on a windows 2012 server , any advices and suggestions will be greatly appreciate.
I'm clearly not a pro about security.
And my last question :
On the client folder i actually have in the clientxml, is it safe to give that to players ?
<address>my ip serv</address>
<port>my port </port>
About the sql database, i don't know how to protect it, i only used MD5 password actually
Thank you for reading, hope you can help me !
