How to protect your server?

[C0pyright]

Hi everyone, i have a question.
What is the best way to protect an habbo retroserver from ddos?
Also if already use cloudflare, i think it’s not enough cuz sometimes IP is visible anyway

Opt out of Censys Data collection, this should hide your IP from bein looked through them.

You can Google how to do this ^

Then I use Geoblocks for problematic countries like China, Turkey, Russia, for example. Your Events in the security tab of Cloudflare should tell you more about where the attacking IP source country is.

I read that using nginx you should be more protected.
do you know anything about it? Can it be used on both Windows and Ubuntu?

Yeah nginx can be used on windows but I personally haven’t done it

Windows is a bad idea most of the time. It can't match the performance of Linux, especially an optimized server.
