Managed DDoS Protection — Expert Mitigation Without the Hassle

Our managed DDoS protection service goes beyond the always-on mitigation included with every AnubizHost plan. With managed protection, our network security team actively monitors your server's traffic patterns, analyzes incoming threats, and tunes mitigation rules specifically for your application's traffic profile.

The service includes proactive traffic analysis that identifies potential threats before they escalate into full-blown attacks. Our team monitors anomalies in traffic volume, source distribution, protocol mix, and request patterns. When suspicious activity is detected, mitigation rules are preemptively tightened to block the threat before it impacts your service.

You also receive custom mitigation profiles tailored to your application. If your server runs a gaming service, our team configures filtering rules optimized for game protocol traffic. If you host a web application, the rules are tuned for HTTP patterns. This application-specific tuning reduces false positives and ensures legitimate users are never blocked by overly aggressive filtering.

DDoS attacks do not follow business hours, and neither does our monitoring team. Managed DDoS protection includes round-the-clock surveillance of your server's traffic by our network operations team. When an attack is detected, the team evaluates the threat, adjusts mitigation parameters if needed, and documents the incident for your records.

During a sustained or unusually sophisticated attack, our team can implement additional mitigation measures beyond the automatic filters. This may include deploying custom ACLs, activating geographic filtering, implementing challenge-response mechanisms for HTTP traffic, or coordinating with upstream providers to block attack traffic at the source.

After each significant incident, you receive a post-attack report detailing the attack type, duration, peak bandwidth, mitigation actions taken, and any recommendations for strengthening your infrastructure. These reports help you understand the threats you face and make informed decisions about your hosting architecture.

Generic DDoS mitigation rules work well for most situations, but some applications have unique traffic patterns that benefit from customization. Our managed service includes the creation and maintenance of custom filtering rules designed specifically for your environment.

For example, if your application receives traffic exclusively from certain geographic regions, we can configure geographic filtering that blocks or challenges traffic from unexpected locations during an attack. If your API uses specific headers or authentication tokens, we can create rules that prioritize authenticated traffic and apply stricter filtering to unauthenticated requests.

Whitelisting is another critical component. If your server communicates with known partners, payment processors, or monitoring services, we can whitelist their IP ranges to ensure they are never affected by mitigation rules, even during the most aggressive filtering. This prevents the operational disruption that occurs when DDoS protection accidentally blocks legitimate infrastructure traffic.

Managed DDoS protection is available as an add-on to any AnubizHost VPS or dedicated server plan. After deploying your server, contact our team to discuss your application's requirements and traffic patterns. We will configure your initial mitigation profile and begin monitoring immediately.

Onboarding includes a review of your application architecture, expected traffic patterns, and any known threats you face. Based on this assessment, we create a mitigation strategy that balances protection strength with minimal impact on legitimate traffic. The configuration is implemented without any downtime or service interruption.

Communication during incidents happens through your preferred channel — email, Telegram, or a dedicated support ticket. You set the notification thresholds and escalation preferences, and we follow your policy. Whether you want to be notified of every minor probe or only alerted during major attacks, the managed service adapts to your operational needs.
