OVH Anti-DDoS
Protection
Enterprise-grade network security, included by default
Every Hozvik Cloud server on our OVH datacenters (Mumbai and Vint Hill) sits behind OVH's own global Anti-DDoS infrastructure — combining edge, backbone, and datacenter-level filtering with no extra cost, no setup, and no time limit on protection.

Global Filtering vs. Per-Attack Mitigation
OVH separates two figures: the total worldwide filtering capacity maintained across its network, and the proven mitigation capacity demonstrated against a single large-scale attack.

Multi-Stage Defense
How Traffic Gets Filtered
Every mitigation node is split into stages, each responsible for a specific layer of filtering, so legitimate traffic keeps moving while malicious traffic is dropped before it reaches your server.
Stage 1
Network Edge
Traffic first hits OVH's global edge network, the outermost layer of the backbone.
Always-on detection
Stage 2
Pre-Firewall
Arista 7508R hardware classifies and pre-filters traffic at up to 1.2 Tbps before deeper analysis.
Hardware-level filtering
Stage 3
VAC (Vacuum)
The core scrubbing engine — detects and mitigates attacks up to 1.3 Tbps per incident.
Proven mitigation capacity
Stage 4
Protected Server
Only clean, legitimate traffic is forwarded to your Hozvik Cloud server.
Zero disruption to your SLA
What's Included
Every OVH-backed Hozvik Cloud server gets this by default — no add-ons, no configuration.
Included
Always-On Detection
Traffic is monitored continuously; mitigation kicks in automatically when an attack is detected.
Included
Unmetered Mitigation
No bandwidth billing during an attack, regardless of size.
Included
No Time Limit
Protection lasts the full duration of the attack, however long it runs.
Included
No Attack Cap
There's no limit on how many attacks per month can be mitigated.
Where It's Active
OVH Anti-DDoS protection is live on both OVH-backed Hozvik Cloud locations.

Protection That's Always Running
There's nothing to configure — every server on our OVH network locations is covered by this infrastructure from the moment it's deployed.
