How does our DDoS protection work?

Our DDoS protection is a security system which automatically detects most DDoS attack patterns and which filters the incoming traffic to the server so that the "malicious" attacking traffic is dropped and only the "real" desired traffic arrives at your server. This means that you, as customer, will barely notice a possible attack while our DDoS protection filters the ongoing attack for you.

What can you expect from our DDoS protection?

Our DDoS protection was developed in a way that it recognizes 99% of all attack patterns which it will then filter. In all these cases, our aim is that your server will stay online and available on the Internet, even if they are under attack.

What are the limits of our DDoS protection?

Like every other DDoS protection which is used or offered on the Internet, our DDoS protection has its limits. Although our protection recognizes and filters 99% of all attack patterns, there are some DDoS attacks which can not be mitigated because of their pattern or sheer volume. The probability that your server is affected by attacks which our DDoS protection can not filter is very low. We also work continuously on further improving our protection system so that even attacks which we can not avert today will be recognized and filtered in the near future as well. Nonetheless, we ask for your understanding that the Contabo DDoS protection - like any other DDoS protection - represents no guarantee that your server system will be protected from every DDoS attack theoretically conceivable.
