Frequently Asked Questions
What is DDoS Protection?
DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) Protection is a comprehensive security service that safeguards your infrastructure from distributed denial of service attacks. These attacks attempt to overwhelm your servers, network, or applications with malicious traffic, making your services unavailable to legitimate users.
RackCorp’s DDoS protection service provides multi-layered defense against all types of DDoS attacks, from small volumetric floods to sophisticated multi-vector assaults exceeding multiple terabits per second. Our global network of scrubbing centers and advanced detection systems ensure your services remain available even during the most sophisticated attacks.
Why DDoS Protection is Essential
The Growing Threat
DDoS attacks are becoming increasingly common and sophisticated:
- Attack Frequency: DDoS attacks occur daily, with many organizations experiencing multiple attacks per month
- Attack Size: Modern attacks can exceed 1Tbps, requiring massive infrastructure to mitigate
- Attack Sophistication: Multi-vector attacks combine multiple techniques to bypass basic protection
- Business Impact: Even short outages can result in significant revenue loss and reputation damage
The Cost of Downtime
Without proper DDoS protection, attacks can cause:
- Revenue Loss: E-commerce sites can lose thousands of dollars per minute of downtime
- Customer Trust: Service outages damage brand reputation and customer confidence
- Compliance Issues: Many industries require uptime guarantees that DDoS attacks can violate
- Operational Disruption: Attacks can disrupt internal operations and employee productivity
How Our DDoS Protection Works
Global Network Architecture
Our DDoS protection leverages a global network of scrubbing centers:
- Anycast Distribution: Traffic is automatically routed to the nearest scrubbing center
- Global Capacity: 10Tbps+ total capacity distributed across multiple locations
- Redundancy: Multiple scrubbing centers ensure protection even if one location is overwhelmed
- Low Latency: Strategically located centers minimize latency for legitimate traffic
Multi-Layer Protection
We protect at multiple network layers:
- Network Layer (L3/L4): Protects against volumetric and protocol attacks
- Application Layer (L7): Protects web applications from HTTP floods and application attacks
- DNS Layer: Protects DNS infrastructure from DNS amplification attacks
- Multi-Vector: Handles attacks that combine multiple techniques simultaneously

Attack Types We Protect Against
Volumetric Attacks
High-volume attacks that overwhelm network capacity:
- UDP Floods: Overwhelm network with UDP packets
- ICMP Floods: Ping floods that consume bandwidth
- DNS Amplification: Exploit DNS servers to amplify attack traffic
- NTP Amplification: Use NTP servers to generate massive traffic volumes
Protocol Attacks
Exploit network protocol weaknesses:
- SYN Floods: Exhaust server connection resources
- TCP Floods: Overwhelm TCP connection handling
- Fragmented Packet Attacks: Exploit packet reassembly processes
- Smurf Attacks: Amplify attacks using broadcast networks
Application-Layer Attacks
Target specific applications and services:
- HTTP Floods: Overwhelm web servers with HTTP requests
- HTTPS Floods: Encrypted attacks that bypass basic filtering
- Slowloris Attacks: Keep connections open to exhaust server resources
- Application-Specific Attacks: Target vulnerabilities in specific applications
Best Practices for DDoS Protection
Preparation
Prepare for attacks before they occur:
- Enable Protection Early: Don’t wait for an attack to enable protection
- Document Procedures: Maintain runbooks for attack response
- Test Regularly: Test your protection configuration to ensure it works
- Monitor Continuously: Use monitoring tools to detect attacks early
During an Attack
What to do when an attack occurs:
- Trust the System: Our automated mitigation handles most attacks automatically
- Monitor Dashboards: Use real-time dashboards to track attack metrics
- Communicate: Keep stakeholders informed about attack status
- Document: Record attack details for post-incident analysis
Post-Attack
After an attack is mitigated:
- Review Analytics: Analyze attack patterns and characteristics
- Update Procedures: Refine response procedures based on lessons learned
- Enhance Protection: Adjust protection rules based on attack patterns
- Share Intelligence: Contribute to threat intelligence sharing
