included on every plan
Your server stays up,
even under attack.
Every Hostd server is sat behind always-on, network-level anti-DDoS protection. Multi-Tbit/s filtering capacity at the edge, deployed by default on every server in your account, and included in the price you pay.
What DDoS protection doesn't do
Being honest about the boundary: network-layer DDoS protection shields your server from external flooding. It doesn't protect against:
- Abusive in-game players. If someone's ruining your server, ban them or use a whitelist - no firewall knows what's happening inside your world.
- Misconfigured mods/plugins. A plugin that crashes your server on a specific command isn't a DDoS. Our team will help you spot it in the console though.
- Attacks against your home / ISP. Your server is safe; if your own connection is being targeted, that's your ISP's problem.
Pick a plan and we'll handle the rest.
DDoS protection is on by default. You don't toggle it, upgrade to it, or configure it.
