What a DDoS attack does
A distributed denial-of-service attack attempts to exhaust bandwidth or resources through multiple sources. Attacks may target volume, protocols or applications, and each class requires different signals and filters.
Questions for a provider
Ask which services are covered, how mitigation activates, how traffic is routed and what telemetry and support are available. Aggressive game filtering can block legitimate players, making protocol profiles and operations important.
- Always-on or on-demand
- Covered protocols and ports
- Metrics access
- False-positive process
- Terms and exclusions
Defense in depth
Network mitigation does not replace application limits, updates, firewall policy or observability. Hide administrative services, apply rate limits and document escalation and recovery procedures.
Frequently asked questions
Do all plans include the same DDoS mitigation?
No. inetHost distinguishes baseline network protection from mitigated plans with advanced filtering for critical and gaming workloads. Current product terms remain authoritative.
How should I test DDoS protection?
Do not generate an attack without authorization. Validate configuration, telemetry, contacts and procedures with the provider, using only controlled tests approved in writing.
