Advanced Cloud DDoS Protection
Linode’s global network is protected by advanced DDoS mitigation in all of our data centers, helping to fend off attacks on your infrastructure. Free for all customers.
DDoS Protection
The Linode Cloud automatically detects and mitigates distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks on your infrastructure from large-volume traffic intended to make your service unavailable to legitimate users.
Real-Time Network Protection
Detect, analyze, and block attacks on your infrastructure in real time. Attacks are blocked inline, then redistributed across Linode's global fiber backbone.
Intelligent Threat Blocking
Rules are automatically created using machine learning from traffic across the global network to intelligently reroute malicious traffic during a DDoS event.
No Increased Latency
Keep good traffic and block the bad, with no increased latency and no routing of your traffic to a third party.
Intercept a Range of Attack Methods
Protect your server applications from a range of DDOS attack methodologies including UDP, SYN, HTTP floods, and more.
No Cost or Maintenance for Customers
Our always-on protection is fully automated and free to customers, adding another layer of protection to your infrastructure on the Linode network.
Specifications
"We’ve invested in the capacity and automation to mitigate DDoS attacks across our global network, giving our customers the protection they need to scale with confidence."
How it Works
A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attempt to disrupt normal traffic of a targeted server, service or network by flooding the target with different kinds of requests, overwhelming the server, and disconnecting legitimate users from necessary services. Linode DDoS mitigates these kinds of attacks by providing always-on protection that is fully automated and free to customers, adding another layer of protection to your infrastructure on the Linode Cloud.
