Hackers frequently attack my website

[rahmwilliam]

I don't understand why attackers constantly devise plans to target my website, which is related to phone repairs, as it's just a store I've been running. One day, the attackers launched a severe attack, rendering my website inaccessible. This situation has left me deeply disheartened. I am determined to find specific solutions to protect my website from future attacks.

It's not about you specifically I am guessing. For example, if you were to register a new domain you would notice it gets immediately attacked by hundreds of bots within the first 10 min of going online without a site yet.

Protect your site as best as possible against such script kiddies and always stay up to date.

you dont need understanding, you need protection.

Script kiddies use a 'shot gun' approach. They find hacking code and try it out on all the sites they can. If they find a vulnerable site they post back where they found the hack. If you are worried about your site try https://mysites.guru/
