> Attempts to Bypass CDNs, (Wed, Dec 3rd)

Currently, in order to provide basic DDoS protection and filter aggressive bots, some form of Content Delivery Network (CDN) is usually the simplest and most cost-effective way to protect a web application. In a typical setup, DNS is used to point clients to the CDN, and the CDN will then forward the request to the actual web server. There are a number of companies offering services like this, and cloud providers will usually have solutions like this as well.
