I literally have not understood a single one of your posts that were longer than two lines without resorting to what feels like detective work at this point. Can you please start to format/proofread/spellcheck/use non-broken english in future posts? I understand english may not be your first language, and I sincerely hope it isn't, but it's difficult to understand anything you post. This is the predominately english-speaking part of the forum, so it would be preferable if you could put a little more effort into making your posts legible.
That being said, ddosing is not like hacking into a database. Anybody with a botnet can ddos a server, as you are just overwhelming the server capacity with constant queries. And there's very little you can do to prevent a ddos with a public server.
Riot literally has to wait until a ddos starts, then they can do something about it. And that's basically finding out which of the queries to the server are part of the botnet and denying them access, increasing server capacity to try to brute force counter the increased traffic, or shutting out public access to the server. The last option is off the table, the second option is expensive and no guarantee to be effective, and the first option is time-consuming and sometimes ineffective depending on the sophistication of the ddos. Unfortunately, the first option is the only viable option most of the time.
Database security is another question, but it's pretty established that almost all databases in the world are vulnerable to any dedicated hacker(s). It's expensive work to come up with a secure database system from scratch, or even upgrade an existing one. And Riot doesn't have any stake in security systems, so they likely are using a third-party's software for their database management. Any vulnerabilites in their system are not necessarily within their purview to fix.
