Looks like the company http://www.incapsula.com is not confident enough to stop/mitigate DDOS attack?

How can company like that says they do DDOS PROTECTION and NOT ABLE TO PROTECT A SITE from DDOS?

Incapsula is the leading DDOS protection company in the world, but nothing really can stop DDOS.
Anyhow site seems to be working for me.

Sure you can stop the attack.  You add enough capacity with withstand any of them.  That's how you handle them.  No magic software or hardware that can do a perfect job filtering syn floods and spoofed IPs/routes.  But people try their best.  I have lots of experience dealing with extremely high flood attacks.  What burns me the most is that tracing the source of the attacks is very tricky.  That leaves my lawyer out of a job because there's no one to sue!
DDOS attack > any capacity that you can provide.

ddos protection outfits are largely scams with exception of cloudflare for business. Once you get slammed  on a regular basis by ddos attacks it's likely the provider will just dump you as too risky a customer. It's too easy to rent botnets or rent ddos services now, pop on any crime forum and there are hundreds of listings for cheap attacks you can snowball into one huge attack no anti-ddos service can survive.

They are only charging $299/month, so no way they can resist huge attacks. Real DDOS protection is thousands per month I bet incapsula dumps any exchanges because of constant attacks. Solution is decentralized exchanging somehow, big freenet exchange that has multiple escrow options with web of trust or stick to IRC trading.

Enterprise level protection costs much more than that.

Either they weren't down for everyone or this isn't correct.

It would be relatively straightforward to tunnel traffic (especially api calls) to route around (or through) run-of-the-mill DDOS.  Were I setting up an exchange, I would probably make it a feature for highly valued customers, charting websites, etc.


sig spam anywhere and self-moderated threads on the pol&soc board are for losers.
