Hello,
We are getting attacked on our website.
The attacker is over flowing our CPU and RAM fast, and we believe its because of flask, we need live help so you can see the logs while we are being attacked to fix this.
We jsut started the website, and there is competition in this industry, we need someone that is willing to help us right away live!
We need a few pages cached, we need rate limiting etc. We need to find the source of the problem and fix it.
The requirements states that it has multiple issues and I would like to address them separately.
1. Overflowing CPU - We can limit the rate at which user connects to system to avoid dos attacka
2. Overflowing RAM - It could be due to large traffic, but recommends to check for any possible memory leak
3. Logging - We can use python/flask logger to log all access and error logs
If the app is hosted via nginx/apache, we have to check for the rate limits and logging configuration used here.
Please provide more info on the project, how its hosted, whare is it hosted, Howmany url endpoints it has (estimate) etc so that I can have a better understanding of the system and adjust the quote if needed.
Proposed Milestones
$125 USD - Initial milestone
$125 USD - Final milestone
I'll be looking to help with flask security to reduce attack vectors.
Relevant Skills and Experience
I have been managing servers for the last 2 years. I have vast experience with reading and understanding logs and I have worked with rate limiting on Nginx(I hope you are using this as the webserver)
Proposed Milestones
$111 USD - Getting the source of the problem causing RAM and CPU spikes and fixing it.
Though I am new here but my team has 4 years of experience into Website Design and Development across all Platforms especially on . Can very well execute this Project and can start immediately.
Hello! I'd be happy to help you with your website security. If you are truly under a Denial of Service attack from the RAM and CPU being overloaded, a Web Application Firewall might be a good idea to set up. We can talk about details and options over instant message. I look forward to working with you.
I may be able to help you. I have over 7 years of experience with Flask. I have included an estimate for your project if you are interested or need more info please get in touch with me.
