Hello,
2-3 months ago we announced work on
Anti -DDoS protection :
http://forum.ovh.com/showthread.php?t=89081

Since we worked on the implementation of these
protections in order to offer a service
default, not limited in time , not limited in size
the attack nor the type of attack. We set
place 3 infrastructure called "VAC" with a
480Gbps/480Mpps capacity coupled with backbone we
have more 2Tbps excess bandwidth
receive attacks and mitigate them .

That's a lot but in the Anti -DDoS protections it
no marketing . Either it works and it is
either everything is down. We wanted to protect
your servers without putting down our backbone or
other customers. So we had to design a
protection that can protect you against
any attack. In short , it was great to see
from the start . To date , we have the largest
mitigation infrastructure that was publicly
announced , probably because we are the only
on the market to be transparent even when
is sensitive topics as DDoS attacks .

The challenge we gave ourselves was to design
infrastructure capable of mitigating the
attacks of 0.5Tbps while the offering at a price
incredibly cheap : the target was set to 1 e / month
by service. We questioned the solutions
techniques to once again innovate and otherwise
bigger, cheaper and faster.

Indeed, opposite the market, we believe that
Anti -DDoS protection should be part of the service
included and fully protect all clients without
exception and without difference of service actually provided.
They would not have paid options on Anti -DDoS
as the number of attack for 2 years has increased significantly ,
and we can not really say that to be safe.

2 months ago we announced that we have chosen
share the costs of Anti -DDoS service on all
customers and reduce the price increase service
former clients like new . we are
pleased to announce that we were able to hold this commitment.

Starting today , the Anti -DDoS service goes into STABLE
and integrate the cost of Anti -DDoS in the price for
following services:

VPS
===
- VPS : +0.5 e / month

dedicated Servers
===============
- KS : +1.0 e / month
- SP: +1.0 e / month
- FS : +1.0 e / month
- EG : +2.0 e / month
- MG : +2.0 e / month
- MHG : +3.0 e / month
- HG : +3.0 e / month

pCC
===
- Host S +2.0 e / month
- S + host + +2.0 e / month
- Host +2.0 M e / month
- The host +2.0 e / month
- Host +2.0 L + e / month
- The host + + +2.0 e / month
- Host L2 +3.0 e / month
- Host L2 + +3.0 e / month
- Host XL +3.0 e / month
- Host XL + +3.0 e / month

Thus, all these services are Anti -DDoS protection that
protects against all attacks without limitation .

For an annual payment of the server, we have implemented
discount equivalent to the annual amount of the increase
price .

We have developed three unique innovations that
we included in the professional use :

- Self- mitigation permanent mitigation instead
ie it is possible to enable mitigation
24/24 instead of letting OVH detect attacks ,
enable mitigation and off after the attack.

- The firewall to allow network that allows all
ports where you have the service and block everything else.

- Access to the archive stream that passed through the
VAC on 7J with the possibility of extraction of logs
for analysis with the information about what was
blocked and that was accepted.

As announced, the price of the professional use
the EG and MG password 15e/mois to 30e/mois . neither
change on the SP and HG.

For VPS , KS and the pCC who do not use
pro, we propose the "Anti -DDoS PRO" option
few days.

In terms of SLA , we add the term commitment
detection time of the attack and the power
self- mitigation which is less than 90 seconds.
