Introduction

DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks are malicious attempts to disrupt the normal traffic of a targeted server, service, or network by overwhelming it with a flood of internet traffic. To ensure uninterrupted service for our customers, ZAP-Hosting uses proven DDoS protection solutions tailored to each server location in our data centers.

Our DDoS protection systems operate automatically and in real time, filtering out malicious traffic before it can affect server performance or availability.

DDoS Protection Comparison

The following table provides a simplified overview of the key features of the DDoS protection systems we use. This comparison helps you understand what type of protection is applied at each server location.
While all providers offer strong baseline protection, the coverage and methods vary depending on the infrastructure.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

ZAP-Hosting uses different solutions depending on the data center location and network infrastructure: PletX at our German locations (FFM/Eygelshoven) and OVH Anti-DDoS at our London, Singapore, Sydney, and Montreal locations.
Both provide always-on protection, baseline protection for all services, network and application filtering, and additional game-specific filtering with no downtime during mitigation. One difference: only PletX offers real-time monitoring visualization in DDoS Manager; OVH does not.
See the dedicated PletX DDoS protection documentation for our German and upcoming US regions, or the OVH DDoS protection documentation for our UK, Asian, Australian, and Canadian locations.
