Included with every server

DDoS filtering, and where it stops

It runs on every server. Here's what it catches and where it stops.

Automatically included with every server: vServers from €1.29/month and dedicated servers from €32.00/month.

Active 24/7, automatically
Frankfurt am Main
Prepaid, no minimum term
Filtered
Volumetric attacks at network level, meaning L3 and L4.
Not filtered
Attacks at application level (L7). We don't filter those.

The filtering detects and drops attack traffic while forwarding legitimate traffic to your server.

DDoS filtering at a glance

What the DDoS filtering includes

No add-on package, no surcharge: at noez, filtering comes with every server.

Automatically active
Filtering is active around the clock from the moment your server is provisioned — with nothing for you to set up.
No DDoS surcharge
DDoS filtering is included in the stated server price and is not billed as a separate protection package.
Volumetric basic filtering
It works at network level and runs around the clock.
For all servers
Applies to LXC and KVM vServers, dedicated servers and GRE tunnel IPs — from web shops to game servers.

What the filtering covers, and what it doesn't

Filtered

  • Volumetric attacks at network level, meaning L3 and L4.
  • It runs continuously. You don't switch it on and you don't book it separately.
  • On every server, at no extra charge.

Not filtered

  • Attacks at application level (L7). We don't filter those.
  • We don't promise you availability during an attack.
  • Targets that are attacked persistently and deliberately.

If you're permanently in someone's crosshairs, you need a specialised mitigation provider. We're a hosting company, and that's not something we can take off your hands. And if an attack doesn't stop, we may temporarily null-route your IP.

How the protection works

Detect and filter attack traffic

The protection runs permanently in the background – there is nothing for you to set up.

  1. 1

    Detect

    Incoming traffic is analyzed around the clock. The system automatically recognizes suspicious attack patterns.

  2. 2

    Filter

    We drop the attack traffic we detect.

  3. 3

    Deliver

    Legitimate requests are then forwarded to your server.

Understand the technology

How does DDoS filtering work at noez.de?

In a DDoS attack (Distributed Denial of Service), many machines send large volumes of requests to a server at the same time. The goal is to disrupt access to websites, applications or game servers.

Filtering — active around the clock

The filtering runs continuously; you don't have to switch it on. It spots attack traffic and drops it while your legitimate requests get through. How well that works depends on the attack and the routes it takes.

DDoS filtering for game servers

Game servers such as Minecraft server or TeamSpeak server can also be targeted by DDoS attacks. That is why filtering is active around the clock on our servers. If you're attacked persistently and deliberately, though, it won't be enough.

DDoS filtering for the server location

DDoS filtering is active around the clock for our servers in Frankfurt am Main. Learn more about the server infrastructure on the page about our data center in Frankfurt am Main.

Frequently asked questions about DDoS filtering

What is a DDoS attack?
In a DDoS attack (Distributed Denial of Service), many machines simultaneously send massive amounts of requests to a server in order to overload it. The goal is to make a website, application or game server unreachable for real users.
Does DDoS filtering cost extra at noez.de?
No. DDoS filtering is active for every server at no extra charge; there is no separate add-on plan for it.
How strong is the DDoS filtering?
It catches common volumetric attacks at network level and runs on every server at no extra charge. If you're attacked persistently and deliberately, it won't be enough.
Which products does the filtering apply to?
To all servers at noez.de: LXC and KVM vServers as well as dedicated servers. Filtering is also active for our GRE tunnel IPs.
Will I notice anything when my server is attacked?
Filtering works automatically, detects and drops attack traffic while forwarding legitimate requests to your server.
Is the filtering enough if my server is attacked constantly?
No. We catch common volumetric attacks. If you're attacked persistently and deliberately, you need a specialised mitigation provider. And if an attack doesn't stop, we may temporarily null-route your IP.
