I need a little help here. I have been dealing with DoS attacks against my webserver all day. And we had a hacker break in, defaced our website got access to CVS, didnt steal any source code but we are checking it nonetheless. Luckily we caught it before he could access our customer database. What are some of the things I can do to minimize the damage, right now we use SuSE Enterprise Linux 8 and the Apache Web Server. I thought it was secure enough. What are some practices I can incorporate in the future to prevent DoS attacks. I dont think I will be able to make the Installfest because I have a real mess to clean up.
