DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks have been on the increase recently. These involve remote-controlled networks of compromised computers ("botnets") overloading services on a server by sending a vast number of requests. We offer an anti-DDoS filter with a bandwidth of 2 Tbit/s for all our root servers, managed servers, and dedicated server solutions. This filter is activated automatically as soon as your server experiences a substantial number of incoming packets or an equivalently high amount of traffic from the internet. Thanks to our comprehensive protection against DDoS attacks, the Anexia DDoS Guard, we protect your infrastructure against attacks up to layer 4.
