Layer-7 DDoS absorption and bot mitigation included with every plan. Our global edge network can absorb attacks up to 10 Tbps, keeping your site online even under sustained attack.
What we mean by DDoS
A DDoS (distributed denial-of-service) attack tries to overwhelm your site with so much traffic that legitimate visitors cannot get through. Some are crude floods of HTTP requests; others are sophisticated, targeting specific endpoints with patterns designed to consume database connections or CPU.
How we absorb attacks
- Traffic hits our global edge before reaching your server
- Behavioral fingerprinting separates real visitors from bots in milliseconds
- Legitimate users are passed through with normal performance
- Attack traffic is rate-limited, challenged, or blocked at the edge
- You see normal request volume on your server — the flood never arrives
Always-on, not on-demand
We do not require you to flip a switch when an attack starts. Protection is always active, which means even short, sharp attacks that older systems would miss are handled automatically.
Bot mitigation, too
Not every bot is a DDoS — but scrapers, vulnerability scanners, and credential-stuffing bots can still hurt your site. We block known-bad user agents, behavioral fingerprints, and IP ranges associated with malicious activity.
