Frequently Asked Questions

What is a DDoS attack?

Distributed denial of source attacks, also known as DDOS attacks, are when a malicious actor attempts to overload a server with automated requests from many devices at the same time.

Botnets, which are composed of devices that have been infected with malicious software, are often used in these types of attacks.

What does DDoS protection do?

This service helps protect your website from DDoS attacks by providing a layer of protection that can absorb and filter out malicious traffic.

In short, this service makes sure automated malicious traffic never reaches your server.

What DOESN'T DDoS protection do?

DDoS protection is a good way to keep your site secure, but it is only one part of a larger security plan.

Layer 7 attacks are not prevented by this plan. For added protection, we recommend using this hosting plan in combination with a firewall or an external service, like Cloudflare.

It is also still necessary to follow security best practices, like using strong passwords and keeping your website software up to date.

What else can I do to protect my site?

  • Install and force the use of a SSL certificate
  • Create backups frequently and test them
  • Use strong passwords with letters, numbers, and symbols
  • Use IP address restrictions on any privileged or administrative areas
  • Monitor your log files frequently for attacks & intrustion attempts

Do I really need a SSL certificate?

Yes! An SSL certificate will protect against man in the middle attacks and we recommend that you use one for any type of website.

We have a partnership with Let's Encrypt and provide an unlimited number of free SSL certificates to all of our customers.

What additional steps can I take to secure Magento?

  • Change the default admin URL
  • Block external access to cron.php
  • Always run the latest version available
  • Enable and use 2 factor authentication for all privileged accounts

What additional steps can I take to secure WordPress?

  • Change the default admin URL
  • Place IP restrictions on the admin dashboard
  • Enable automatic updates
  • Limit account privileges to the bare minimum for their roles

What People Say ?

Testimonials person picture

I have had websites with many hosting companies over many years - pretty much since the Internet was all shiny and new. I have been hosted by both big-name companies and smaller ones. But I have never been as satisfied with a hosting company as I am with Hawk Host. In my opinion, Hawk Host is the absolute best hosting company in existence. Their package prices are extremely reasonable, and I've never had any problems with downtime. Hawk Host is a friendly, professional company that delivers first-rate service. To everyone at Hawk Host: thank you so much for being so awesome!

When I first started searching the internet for a reliable host, I came across several hundred hosts. The search was quite over whelming, I wanted a host that was affordable, but reliable and had good support, in case something went wrong. I found a good team of people with Hawk Host. I monitor my sites downtime and have seen it go off line when the guys are updating software, and that only takes minutes. Most companies claim the world and deliver an island. I have been with them over a year and will continue to use them.

After signing up with Hawk Host, our website was able to join the World Wide Web instantly. The customer support staff went out of their way to help, not only representing our website as it should be, but also giving us hints on how to set up a content management system. It is a great service for start up businesses.

What Reasons Are There For DDoS Attacks?

The motivation behind most DDoS attacks is money. The attacker could be trying to extort money from you, or a competitor may want to block traffic to your site. A DDoS attack could be carried out by an angry employee or customer as a form of revenge. On the other hand some DDoS attacks are truly random. You never know when your website might become a target, so it's important to take proactive steps to protect it.
