Data storage on AWS - AWS Webinar
The popularity of cloud services is due to the fact that there are virtually infinite resources available at any given moment. Whether it's multiple terabytes of images or videos, huge databases or even backups, we always have the space we need. But how data is stored in the cloud is important, and there are significant differences between storage solutions. There will be files that need to be instantly accessed millions of times a day,, and others that will remain untouched for weeks or months. Choosing the right data storage solution also has an impact on costs, so it is worth being aware of the options available.
How to prevent overload attacks in the cloud?
In recent weeks, we have seen a number of news portals, such as 444.hu, and civic services initiatives connected with, for example, the pre-election system, becoming the victims of overload attacks. The Hungarian government information website and the vaccine registration page for the Corona virus, which was developed in Drupal, were also made unavailable for hours, reportedly due to similar attacks. Furthermore, the last few weeks have also seen attempts to blackmail banks into making their systems unavailable if they do not pay a ransom fee. There can be a lot of frustration and huge business - financial and reputational - damage if an important service becomes unavailable for hours or days, which is why it is so important to both prevent and protect against such threats. In this article we will show you how you can secure yourself against such attacks in the cloud and what services Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides to protect your services.

Devertix has gained ISO 27001 certification
For IT companies, protecting their customers' and their own data is a huge challenge. A wrongly-chosen password or a careless click can cause enormous damage, and we have seen countless examples of this in Hungary and in our wider environment in recent years.
