DDoS-Protected VPS Explained — What Filtering Actually Covers

NulNet DDoS abstract: cyan shield around racks

Volumetric L3/L4 filtering rides every plan at no extra fee; L7 floods need your application. Where the platform's job ends and yours starts.

The layers that matter

Attack names are layer names. L3/L4 floods — SYN storms, UDP amplification, ACK abuse — aim at your pipe and your state tables, and upstream scrubbing centers absorb them before a single packet reaches your host. L7 floods — HTTP hammers, slowloris, API abuse — arrive dressed as legitimate requests, and no network filter can separate them from real users without knowing your application. That separation is the whole story: the platform owns the volumetric layer, the application owns everything that looks like traffic.

VPS from $3* (fund $50+), storage 1–5 TB NVMe from $24/mo annual-eff, dedicated with IPMI from $30.80/mo. Crypto invoice, no KYC.

Sizing against an attack

Is DDoS protection really included, not an upsell?

Yes. L3/L4 filtering ships enabled on every VPS, storage and dedicated SKU, with no per-IP fee and no support ticket to request it. The one upgrade is Citadel's L3/L7 scrubber at the top of the metal ladder.

Will filtering block my legitimate users?

Volumetric scrubbing is statistical and tuned upstream, so ordinary traffic patterns — browsers, APIs, game clients — pass without notice. What it cannot judge is application-shaped abuse: a slowloris or a valid-looking API flood belongs to your rate limiting or a CDN.

Do Tor exits get DDoS protection?

Yes, on the same terms as any server, and exits attract more ambient noise than almost any other workload. Exits are provisioned on request with an abuse contact attached, since the role generates complaints by design.

What happens if an attack still saturates my service?

The filters keep the pipe and state tables alive, but an L7 flood that mimics users can still exhaust your application — check connection limits, add caching, or move HTTP behind a CDN. If the box itself wedges, dedicated IPMI lets you reimage without waiting on a KVM ticket.
