Hello,

may be I didn't explained that in your ticket, here is what I've done

ddos deflate is installed and its using iptbales to ban IPs with more than 150 connection and its can be used without apf. (even it will not stop real ddos attacks tbh)

csf installed to ban failure http,ftp,imap,smtp logins ,block port scanning attempts & bad reputation IPs from spamhaus database.

hope that will clarify the situation here

So if i have CSF installed

CSF already has CT(connection tracking) option. It basically does the same thing.

I have new VPs, hosting managed that. but i want to make it more secure. please guide me how to install CSF and configure it for safe from dDos ? and if its already installed then how to check this ?

thanks
