How Can You Protect Your Email Marketing Efforts from DDOS Attacks?
While no system is entirely immune, several measures can help protect your email marketing campaigns from DDOS attacks:
Use a Reliable Email Service Provider (ESP): ESPs often have built-in security measures and can help mitigate the effects of an attack. Implement Rate Limiting: Controlling the rate at which requests are processed can help manage traffic during an attack. Monitor Traffic: Regularly monitor your traffic for unusual spikes or patterns that could indicate an attack. Backup Data: Regularly backup your email lists and campaign data to ensure you can quickly recover in case of data loss. Use a Content Delivery Network (CDN): A CDN can distribute your content across multiple servers, making it harder for attackers to target a single point of failure.
