 The issue that Company B faces is that their music files stored in OSS are being downloaded by unauthorized users who access them through search engines, rather than through their website. This is called leeching, which is a form of bandwidth theft that consumes the OSS traffic and increases the cost for Company B. To address this issue, Company B can limit the access sources by configuring the “Anti-leech settings” of OSS bucket attributes. Anti-leech settings allow the bucket owner to specify a referer whitelist, which is a list of domain names that are allowed to access the OSS resources. The referer is a part of the HTTP header that indicates the source URL of the request. By setting a referer whitelist, Company B can prevent leeches from accessing their music files directly from search engines or other websites, and only allow access from their own website domain name. This way, Company B can protect their OSS resources from unauthorized access and reduce their OSS traffic costs. The other options are not effective or relevant for addressing the issue. Migrating music files from OSS to data disks for ECS instances would increase the storage and computing costs for Company B, and also reduce the scalability and availability of their music files. Changing the website access mode to HTTPS would enhance the security and encryption of the website, but it would not prevent leeches from accessing the OSS resources through search engines. Introducing SLB for extra protection would improve the load balancing and high availability of the ECS instances, but it would not affect the access control of the OSS resources. References: OSS Anti-Leech Referer Configuration and Error Elimination
