Why NairoCloud DDoS Shield?

Traffic Scrubbing

Filters out malicious network surges (UDP, SYN, ICMP floods) automatically before they hit your infrastructure.

Layer 7 Defense

Custom WAF rulesets blocking resource-exhaustion HTTP attacks and bad bots attempting to scrape your site.

Instant Mitigation

Active detection routing attacks to global scrubbing centers almost instantly, minimizing downtime.

Anycast Network

Distributed mitigation nodes absorb large-scale volumetric attacks directly at the edge across the globe.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a DDoS attack?

A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack occurs when malicious actors flood your server with overwhelming amounts of fake traffic from a botnet. The goal is to exhaust your server's resources and knock your website offline.

How does NairoCloud DDoS Protection work?

Our protection utilizes an always-on, multi-layered scrubbing network. It continuously analyzes incoming traffic using behavioral algorithms to instantly identify and drop malicious packets before they ever reach your server.

What size of attacks can you mitigate?

Our globally distributed mitigation network has massive capacity, capable of absorbing and neutralizing volumetric attacks exceeding 2 Tbps (Terabits per second), protecting you from even the largest known botnets.

Is the protection 'Always-On'?

Yes. Unlike some providers that route traffic only after an attack is detected (causing brief downtime), our Enterprise DDoS protection is inline and always-on. Mitigation happens in less than a second.

Will DDoS protection slow down my website?

No. Our mitigation centers are deployed at the edge of our global network. Legitimate traffic is routed through the closest node, meaning your website performance remains fast while malicious traffic is filtered out.

What types of DDoS attacks do you stop?

We mitigate all layers of attacks, including Volumetric Attacks (UDP/ICMP floods), Protocol Attacks (SYN floods, Ping of Death), and complex Layer 7 Application Attacks (HTTP POST floods, Slowloris).

Do I need to change my nameservers or DNS?

If you purchase our Edge WAF/Proxy protection, you will point your DNS to our Anycast IPs. If you are hosted on our Dedicated or VPS infrastructure, the protection is built directly into our network backbone with no DNS changes required.

Are there bandwidth overage charges during an attack?

No. You are never billed for malicious attack traffic. Our scrubbing centers absorb the attack bandwidth, and only clean, legitimate traffic counts toward your server's bandwidth quota.

Can I view reports of mitigated attacks?

Yes, Enterprise customers receive access to a comprehensive analytics dashboard showing real-time traffic flows, attack vectors, mitigation actions, and historical incident reports.

Is DDoS protection included with your standard hosting?

Yes, standard Layer 3/4 DDoS protection is included free of charge across all our shared, VPS, and dedicated hosting plans. For advanced Layer 7 application protection, we recommend our Enterprise Add-on.

What is Layer 7 protection?

Layer 7 attacks target the application layer (e.g., repeatedly requesting a heavy database query). Layer 7 protection uses a Web Application Firewall (WAF) to inspect HTTP/HTTPS traffic and block malicious requests that look like normal users.

How quickly is protection activated after purchase?

For our proxy-based solutions, protection is activated instantly upon updating your DNS. For infrastructure-level protection, it is provisioned automatically with your server deployment.
