TL;DR

Quick Summary: A DDoS attack attempts to crash your site by flooding it with millions of fake visitors. AmanaFlow's network automatically filters this "trash traffic," allowing only real users to reach your server.

What is a DDoS Attack?

Imagine a thousand people trying to walk through a single door at the same time. The door gets jammed, and nobody can get in. That's a DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attack. Hackers use "Botnets" (networks of compromised computers) to overwhelm your server's bandwidth or CPU.

The Evolution of Attacks in 2026

In 2026, attacks are no longer just "brute force." They are intelligent. Layer 7 (Application Layer) attacks mimic real human behavior, making them harder to detect without advanced AI systems.


The AmanaFlow Shield

We've built a global Anycast network with over 1 Tbps of capacity to absorb even the largest attacks.

1. Instant Detection

Within seconds of an attack starting, our edge routers identify the traffic pattern.

2. Traffic Scrubbing

The attack traffic is rerouted to a "Scrubbing Center." Here, AI filters out the malicious packets while letting your real customers' traffic pass through uninterrupted.

3. Unlimited Mitigation

Unlike some hosts that "Null Route" (shut down) your site during an attack, AmanaFlow provides Unlimited DDoS Protection. We keep you online, no matter the size of the attack.


Why Every Business Needs Protection

Even small sites are targets for "Ransom DDoS" attacks. Having built-in protection means you never have to worry about a competitor or a hacker taking your business offline for the weekend.
