Automatic DDoS attack mitigation
The likelihood of becoming the target of a DDoS attack is high and a very common occurrence. With Slimeservers anti-DDoS protection, you can protect your services against these types of threats, and ensure that your users do not experience any issues like slow or inaccessible servers.
Multi-layered (or multi staging)
To ensure the best quality of network traffic filtration with minimal added latency for your services, we sliced every mitigation node into a few stages. Every part is responsible for a particular task and implements different logic. We use the latest hardware and software innovations in the industry to assure that we are on top of our game.
Application-layer protections
In some cases, generic protection may not be enough. This is especially true in web and gaming areas, which are often subject to application attacks. In such circumstances, application-layer logic is being exploited by attackers which makes these threats invisible to general firewalls.
DDoS Protection F.A.Q
What kind of attacks does the Anti-DDoS Infrastructure protect me from?
Cyber security covers a broad range of threats and a network attack (or attack vector) combines many factors and may differ across time as well as can be vendor-specific. Our Anti-DDoS Infrastructure addresses the greatest of those: Distributed Denial-of-Service attacks, packet floods (incl. syn flood), spoofing, malformed or amplification attacks, etc. Most of these you can't filter on your own as they can saturate the network link in front of your server.
Will it cost me more?
No, Slimeservers's Anti-DDoS Infrastructure is unmetered, which means we are not billing bandwidth. In addition, protection is built into the price of our products.
Is there a limit to the number of attacks per month that may be mitigated?
There is no limit for receiving protection, regardless of how many times your services are targeted by DDoS attacks.
Whats the VAC?
The VAC is a principal part of our Anti-DDoS Infrastructure and is a combination of different technologies constantly being developed by OVHcloud, and designed to mitigate DDoS attacks. VAC can filter incoming traffic so that only legitimate data packets pass through and reach your server, while illegitimate traffic is blocked. Notably, VAC includes an Edge Network Firewall and Shield and Armor components.
