Protect your IT against increasing attacks

Safeguard your cloud infrastructure

The number of malicious and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks have dramatically increased over the last few years — raising the chances that your IT infrastructure may one day be compromised.

Just in the first half of 2020 alone, there were over 4.8 million DDoS attacks around the world.

As a result, IT administrators have to ensure resilience and availability, even as attacks become increasingly complex. The DDoS Protect Advanced solution from IONOS helps combat malicious activity.
