Dedicated Servers and VPS: Anti-DDoS Upgrade from 960Mpps to over 1.12Gpps
Dedicated Servers and VPS
Choosing the right infrastructure for your business means demanding two essential guarantees: raw processing power and impenetrable defense. In the current landscape, characterized by increasingly sophisticated and frequent cyber threats, the integrity of online projects requires the utmost attention.
At ServerEasy, our philosophy is clear: we never stop. To ensure maximum server infrastructure security, we have just completed a massive upgrade of our network. We have added 2 new next-generation firewalls, bringing the entire architecture up to enterprise standards. Starting today, all our Dedicated Servers and VPS benefit from a massive defense upgrade, going from 960Mpps to over 1.12Gpps of traffic filtered in real time.
What does it mean to protect a web server today?
Before exploring the specifics of our packages, it’s essential to fully understand the nature of the threats our systems neutralize every day. A DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack is an offensive designed to render a website, management system, or application unreachable by saturating the host machine’s network or computing resources.
When a distributed denial of service occurs, cybercriminals use entire networks of compromised devices (botnets) to generate an unsustainable volume of requests. Of the various attack vectors available, the volumetric attack (such as UDP Floods or ICMP Floods) is undoubtedly the most insidious: its sole objective is to create total congestion that overwhelms and blocks legitimate network traffic.
The impact on an inadequately defended web server could be literally devastating, resulting in hours, if not days, of downtime. Furthermore, it’s crucial to emphasize how these anomalous traffic surges often act as a smokescreen: while IT teams are distracted trying to restore services, hackers attempt parallel unauthorized access to databases containing sensitive data of customers.
Why Server DDoS Protection is Included in Our Plans
Today, cyber attacks are no longer a risk exclusive to large multinationals in the banking or government sectors. Any e-commerce site launching, corporate SaaS application, or institutional portal can suddenly become a target, perhaps due to unfair competition or extortion attempts.
The cost of an unmitigated attack is extremely high in many respects: direct loss of revenue for every minute of downtime, a dramatic drop in search engine rankings (since Google bots are unable to crawl the site), and, in the worst-case scenario, the exposure of sensitive information, resulting in strict regulatory and GDPR violations.
This is why at ServerEasy, we’ve decided to never treat security as a paid option. Implementing robust security measures from the very first machine startup is our operational standard. Advanced server DDoS protection is natively and seamlessly integrated across our entire offering, from entry-level VPS to the most complex dedicated clusters, allowing you to work with complete peace of mind.
The Upgrade Numbers: Performance of our Dedicated Servers and VPS
To guarantee absolute security for your data and the uninterrupted reachability of your domains, we have secured our entire data center by implementing a defensive architecture that now includes 14 active firewalls. These systems act in unison as a highly precise server perimeter firewall.
But what do you really get when you purchase one of our servers? You automatically get these industry-leading mitigation features:
| Infrastructure Element | How it works and what it does | Power and Technical Data | Benefit for your Business |
|---|---|---|---|
| Automatic Monitoring | The network constantly analyzes incoming IP addresses and headers, distinguishing visitors from bots in real time. | Active 24/7/365 across the entire network | Immediate response to anomalies with no user configuration required. |
| Redundant Architecture | Mitigation load is instantly balanced to eliminate any single point of failure. | Cluster of 14 active firewalls | If one node is targeted, the others keep the virtual environment operational. |
| Packet Filtering | Analyzes, classifies, and discards malicious packets (UDP/ICMP floods) before they consume server RAM or CPU. | Capacity exceeding 1.12 Gpps | Uncompromised server performance and zero latency, even during massive attacks. |
| Bandwidth Capacity | Repels large-scale volumetric attacks, ensuring there is always room for legitimate traffic. | Bandwidth expanded to 1.4 Tbps | The website or e-commerce site remains accessible to real customers even during an attack. |
Packet filtering: from 960Mpps to over 1.12Gpps
The difference between standard hosting and a premium infrastructure lies in processing power. During an attack, servers are inundated with tiny malicious data packets. Often, bandwidth isn’t enough if the hardware can’t “read” and discard these packets quickly enough.
Our network is now capable of analyzing, classifying, and filtering over 1.12 Gigapackets per second (Gpps), marking an incredible improvement over the previous 960Mpps. Our equipment analyzes incoming IP addresses and network headers in real time, distinguishing human visitors from malicious bots. The system dynamically blocks the traffic at its root, discarding threats before they can consume even a single megabyte of RAM or CPU cycle on your VPS or Dedicated Server.
Anti-DDoS bandwidth expanded to 1.4Tbps
If packets per second (pps) measure the intelligence and reaction speed of firewalls, Terabits per second (Tbps) measure brute force. Volumetric attacks aim exactly to exhaust the available “road” (the bandwidth). With the integration of the new firewalls, the overall managed traffic capacity of the ServerEasy network infrastructure has risen from 1.2Tbps to 1.4Tbps.
Such a wide and spacious defensive mesh ensures there is always excess bandwidth for your real users, even while we are subjected to prolonged, global-scale attacks.
The 4-Step Mitigation Process: Eliminating False Positives
A common issue with low-level defenses is the blocking of legitimate users during an attack (known as “false positives”). Our infrastructure performs surgical mitigation in four steps:
- Detection: Sensors constantly monitor the network flow, identifying anomalies in traffic patterns in less than a second.
- Routing: Suspicious traffic is immediately diverted to our “scrubbing” centers (our 14 firewalls).
- Filtering: Through behavioral algorithms, the power of our 1.12Gpps analyzes requests, blocking malicious scripts.
- Forwarding: Only clean, authentic traffic is forwarded to your Dedicated Server or VPS, guaranteeing an uninterrupted user experience.

Best Practices, Scalable Architecture, and Use Cases
To protect data centers effectively today, adopting the highest network engineering best practices is mandatory. Our distributed 14-firewall cluster eliminates any single point of failure. If an infrastructure suffers a particularly aggressive and targeted DDoS attack, the mitigation load is instantly balanced across the various active nodes, keeping your virtual environment perfectly operational.
This architecture is vital for:
- E-Commerce Platforms: Where a few minutes of unreachability during Black Friday can cost tens of thousands of dollars.
- Gaming Servers: An industry notoriously hit by volumetric attacks, where zero latency is the only acceptable parameter.
- SaaS and Enterprise Applications: Where Service Level Agreements (SLAs) dictate 99.9% uptime for corporate clients.

Is anti-DDoS protection included in the price or is it an extra cost?
Yes, anti-DDoS security is included in the price. This means your infrastructure is protected from the moment it starts up, with no hidden costs or billing surprises.
What is the difference between Tbps and Gpps capacity in DDoS protection?
Tbps (Terabits per second) measures total network bandwidth—the amount of “raw” traffic our infrastructure can handle (now boosted to 1.4 Tbps). Gpps (Gigapackets per second), on the other hand, indicates the hardware’s capacity to process, read, and discard individual malicious data packets in real-time (raised to over 1.12 Gpps). A network might have high bandwidth, but without high Gpps capacity, firewalls would still be overwhelmed by the sheer volume of requests.
Can a DDoS attack harm my website's SEO ranking?
Yes, an unmitigated DDoS attack can ruin your site’s SEO. If the server goes down (offline), Google bots won’t be able to crawl your pages. If the issue persists for hours or days, search engines will penalize your ranking, causing you to lose search positions and organic traffic. Our real-time protection eliminates downtime, safeguarding your SEO investments.
What is a volumetric DDoS attack and how does it affect servers?
It is a cyberattack (such as UDP or ICMP floods) that uses networks of compromised devices (botnets) to overwhelm the server with abnormal traffic. The goal is to saturate the machine’s bandwidth and resources, rendering the site or application completely inaccessible.
Is there a risk of blocking legitimate customers (false positives) while mitigating an attack?
No. Thanks to our enterprise architecture featuring 14 firewalls and a precise, four-stage mitigation process, traffic is analyzed using behavioral algorithms in under a second. The system isolates and eliminates only malicious botnet packets, allowing real users and search engine crawlers to browse and complete purchases smoothly and without latency.
