Yes. Every service includes firewall-based DDoS protection at no extra cost. It is always on, so there's nothing to turn on.
Game servers: open your server in the Unified Panel and go to Network to see its protection status and traffic.
Good to know:
- No protection stops every attack. Very large attacks can still cause lag or brief disconnects
- Network-level protection doesn't fix weaknesses in your own software. Keep your applications and game plugins updated
- If a service is under attack and puts our network or other customers at risk, we may suspend it until the attack ends (section 9 of our Terms of Service)
If you think your service is under attack, open a ticket with the time it started and what you're seeing.
