DDoS Protection

DDoS Protection That Stops Attacks Before They Take Your Site Offline

A single DDoS attack can cost you ₹50,000+ in lost sales, damage your reputation, and drive customers to competitors. Most hosts offer basic protection or none at all. HostCloud DDoS Protection shields your site 24/7 with enterprise-grade mitigation that stops attacks before they reach your server.

WHY THIS IS DIFFERENT

Every plan includes proactive DDoS mitigation — your site stays online.

We detect attacks. We filter malicious traffic. We let legitimate visitors through. Most hosting providers offer none of this — HostCloud builds it into every plan.

Full-Layer Protection

Layer 3, 4, and 7 protection — not just one type

Most "DDoS protection" only handles volumetric attacks that flood your bandwidth. HostCloud protects against Layer 3 network attacks (UDP/ICMP floods, amplification), Layer 4 transport attacks (SYN/ACK floods, connection exhaustion) and Layer 7 application attacks (HTTP floods, slow attacks, WordPress/XML-RPC attacks).

Every attack vector
Volumetric, protocol and application-layer attacks all covered.
Zero false positives
Real visitors always get through, even during an active attack.

Network, transport and application-layer attacks — all filtered before they reach your server.

Mitigation Capacity

5+ Tbps mitigation capacity

Our India-based mitigation network can absorb attacks far larger than any attacker can realistically generate. Even a botnet of thousands of devices gets scrubbed before it touches your server.

Faster mitigation and lower latency for Indian visitors.
Headroom to spare
Overflow capacity and partnerships for extreme attack sizes.

Always-On Detection

No configuration required — protected from day one

Protection is active the moment you enable it. No plugins, no DNS changes, no complex setup. Automatic attack detection runs continuously so your site stays online while every other unprotected host goes down.

What a DDoS attack actually costs you — beyond the downtime

Some attackers even send a ransom email: pay ₹50,000 or we take your site down. Here is the real bill when you have no protection.

01

Lost sales during downtime

Every minute your site is offline during an attack costs ₹5,000–₹50,000 in lost sales, depending on your business.

02

Emergency developer time

Scrambling to mitigate an active attack costs ₹2,000–₹10,000 in emergency developer hours.

03

Server overage fees

Auto-scaling infrastructure during an attack racks up ₹1,000–₹5,000 in overage charges — for attack traffic, not customers.

04

Reputation & SEO damage

Customer trust erodes, complaints spread on social media, and search rankings drop from downtime — recovery takes weeks.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Got Questions? We Have Answers.

Won’t my regular hosting protect me?

No. Regular hosting (shared, VPS, dedicated) provides zero DDoS protection. If your server gets attacked, it goes down. Some cloud hosts auto-scale during attacks, but you pay for the attack traffic. HostCloud DDoS Protection blocks attacks without passing costs to you.

Can’t I just use CloudFlare?

CloudFlare offers basic DDoS protection, but the free plan has limits (under 20k requests/second), Layer 7 protection is paid-plan only, and support requires a premium plan. HostCloud DDoS Protection includes full Layer 3-7 protection, India-based mitigation (faster for Indian visitors), and direct support from our team.

Will protection slow down my site?

No. Mitigation happens at our edge network before traffic reaches your server. Legitimate requests pass through with zero latency. During attacks, your site is actually faster because only clean traffic reaches it.

What if an attack is bigger than your capacity?

Our 5+ Tbps capacity handles realistic attack sizes — in practice we have never seen legitimate attacks exceed this. If somehow exceeded, we have overflow capacity and partnerships to handle even larger attacks.

Do I need to install anything?

No. DDoS Protection is network-level. You enable it in your hosting control panel and we handle the rest — no plugins, no code changes, no DNS changes for most plans.

What if I’m already under attack?

Contact us immediately — we can emergency-protect your site within 15 minutes. Existing customers get priority emergency response.
