How DDoS Protection Works

The Threat of DDoS

A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attempt to disrupt the normal traffic of a targeted server, service, or network by overwhelming the target or its surrounding infrastructure with a flood of Internet traffic.

How an Attack Happens

DDoS attacks are carried out with networks of Internet-connected machines. These networks consist of computers and other devices (such as IoT devices) that have been infected with malware, allowing them to be controlled remotely by an attacker. These individual devices are referred to as bots, and a group of bots is called a botnet.

Why DDoS Protection is Crucial

Without protection, even a small attack can knock your project offline for hours. This is why all Orihost Paid plans come with enterprise-grade DDoS protection included at no extra cost.
