Built-in protection

DDoS attacks happen. Your visitors won’t notice.

Every VPSnet service comes with multi-level DDoS protection that is already on. When an attack starts, the network filters it out automatically — your website keeps loading, your API keeps answering and your players stay in the game.

  • Included free with every service
  • Fully automatic — always on
  • Web, APIs and game servers
How it protects you

From attack to “nothing happened” — automatically

No button to press, nobody to call. Here is what the network does on its own.

  1. An attack starts

    Someone floods your server with junk traffic, hoping to push it offline.

  2. The network notices

    Protection watches traffic at several levels of our network, so an unusual flood stands out fast. Context matters too: a genuine rush of customers or players won’t be mistaken for an attack.

  3. Junk out, people in

    Attack traffic is filtered away while real visitors keep reaching your service.

  4. Back to normal

    As the attack fades, temporary filtering is lifted and traffic flows exactly as before.

What it covers

Not just websites

The protection lives in the network, not in a browser — so it covers everything you run on your server.

Websites & e-shops

Pages keep loading even while an attack is underway, so orders and inquiries don’t stop.

APIs & integrations

An API can’t solve a browser puzzle. Network-level filtering protects machine-to-machine traffic without getting in its way.

Game servers

Game traffic is real-time and sensitive to lag, and attacks on game servers are routine. Filtering is built to keep players connected.

Business-critical services

Running something that really can’t go down? The same automatic protection covers it — and for business-critical services it can be additionally tuned to fit.

It recognises the common attack families and filters them out:

  • High-volume traffic floods
  • Connection & session exhaustion
  • Amplification & reflection
  • Web & SSL request patterns
  • Attacks on infrastructure services
Tailored protection

Extra protection for business-critical services

The built-in protection fits most services out of the box. For business-critical workloads — a busy e-shop, a public API, a popular game server — our team can additionally tune the protection to fit the service.

Why we keep the recipe to ourselves

We deliberately don’t publish our detection logic, thresholds or protection layout. The less attackers know about the defence, the better it protects you. What we do say openly: protection is on, it’s automatic and it comes with every service.

FAQ

Plain answers about DDoS protection

01

Is the protection already enabled?

Yes. It is built into the VPSnet network and active for every service from the first minute. There is nothing to install, enable or configure.

02

Does it cost extra?

No. Multi-level DDoS protection is part of every VPSnet service, not a paid add-on. You won’t find it as a separate line on any invoice.

03

What should I do during an attack?

Usually nothing — filtering starts automatically. If your service still behaves oddly during an attack, message our support team and we’ll look at it together.

04

Do you protect game servers and APIs too?

Yes. The protection works at the network level, so it covers non-web services as well. A game server or an API can’t answer a browser check, so its traffic is filtered in a way that actually fits it.

05

Is a full L7 web application firewall (WAF) included?

Not as a blanket feature on every port. The built-in protection works at the network level, while a web application firewall inspects the content of individual web requests — a different job. Where that layer makes sense for a web project, it can be added — just ask our team.

06

Can you guarantee that every attack will be stopped?

Honestly — nobody can, and we’d be careful with anyone who promises that. Our job during an attack is to keep your service reachable and let real users through. Security inside the server — the operating system and your applications — stays in your hands.
