| Dec 29, 2010 at 0:00 | comment | added | 700 Software | There will be open ports available to the web. But they are not part of the question. The question is meant to address the other types of attacks. Thank you for your comments. I am also confused by the answers list here. However, I have received some valuable information. | |
| Dec 28, 2010 at 23:39 | comment | added | nealmcb | While there are indeed some ICMP attacks, you also lose some management capabilities by turning off ping. DOS in general is hard to protect from, so it would help to know what your threat model is. | |
| Dec 28, 2010 at 23:36 | comment | added | nealmcb | Your edits make me more confused. What sort of server are you running that doesn't have any open TCP or UDP ports? I guess you could mean e.g. a database server that actually always initiates persistent connections with the front-end web servers that it services. But if the machine is responding to requests initiated from elsewhere, that is a significant attack surface to consider. | |

| Dec 27, 2010 at 19:58 | comment | added | AviD♦ | Is this intended to cover specifically Unix? If so, I would suggest specifying that in the question, since most wont notice the tag... Otherwise, you should remove it. | |
