Linux VPS with DDoS Protection

AnubizHost's DDoS mitigation operates at the network edge, analyzing all inbound traffic before it reaches your VPS. Our scrubbing infrastructure uses a combination of hardware-based packet filtering, flow analysis, and behavioral detection to identify and drop attack traffic while forwarding legitimate requests to your server at full speed.

The protection is always-on, meaning there is no detection delay between an attack starting and mitigation engaging. Traditional DDoS protection solutions require an attack to be detected before diverting traffic through scrubbing centers, creating a vulnerability window of several minutes. Our approach eliminates this gap entirely.

We protect against Layer 3 and Layer 4 attacks including SYN floods, UDP floods, ICMP floods, amplification attacks (DNS, NTP, memcached), and protocol exploitation. Our scrubbing capacity exceeds 1 Tbps across our infrastructure, ensuring that even large-scale volumetric attacks are absorbed without affecting your VPS or other customers on the network.

Beyond volumetric network attacks, sophisticated attackers target the application layer with HTTP floods, slowloris attacks, and resource exhaustion techniques designed to overwhelm your web server without triggering volumetric thresholds. Our protection addresses these attacks as well.

• HTTP flood detection using request rate analysis and behavioral patterns.
• Slowloris mitigation through connection timeout enforcement at the network edge.
• JavaScript challenge injection to verify human visitors during active attacks.
• Geographic filtering to block traffic from regions you do not serve.
• Rate limiting per IP and per subnet to prevent individual sources from monopolizing server resources.

For web applications, we recommend combining our network-level DDoS protection with a properly configured reverse proxy (Nginx or HAProxy) on your VPS. This defense-in-depth approach handles both the volumetric and application-layer attack vectors that modern DDoS campaigns employ.

Effective DDoS protection must be invisible to legitimate users. Our filtering infrastructure adds less than 1 ms of latency to clean traffic — an overhead that is undetectable in real-world application performance. During active attacks, legitimate users continue to access your services normally while attack traffic is silently discarded.

We achieve this low-latency filtering through hardware-based packet processing at line rate. Traffic analysis happens in purpose-built silicon rather than general-purpose CPUs, allowing our scrubbing infrastructure to inspect millions of packets per second without creating a processing bottleneck.

False positive rates are kept near zero through continuous tuning of our detection algorithms. We monitor traffic patterns across our entire network to distinguish attack signatures from legitimate traffic spikes. If your application experiences a genuine traffic surge — a product launch, viral content, or seasonal peak — our system recognizes the difference and allows the traffic through.

DDoS protection is included with every AnubizHost Linux VPS plan at no additional cost. There is no protection tier to upgrade, no per-attack fee, and no bandwidth penalty for mitigated traffic. The $15 per month entry plan receives the same DDoS protection as the enterprise tier.

Plans range from 1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, and 30 GB NVMe SSD to 8 vCPU, 32 GB RAM, and 400 GB NVMe. Every plan includes full root access, a dedicated IPv4, 1 Gbps unmetered bandwidth, and your choice of Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, Fedora, or Arch Linux.

We accept Bitcoin, Monero, Litecoin, credit cards, and PayPal. All plans include 24/7 monitoring, free OS reinstalls, reverse DNS management, and a 99.9% uptime SLA. For applications that require custom DDoS mitigation rules or higher scrubbing capacity, contact our team to discuss tailored protection configurations.
