Is it possible to use the Linux firewall for DDoS protection?  My server port is only 1 Gbps with you guys.

Do i even need to worry about setting up firewall rules since you guys offer ddos protection on network level?

Linux operating systems for servers offers pretty good security from threats and are much more robust compared to other operating systems. Having said that, it is wise to configure the firewall on your Linux server for additional security against the increasing security issues.

Here is how you can set up the firewall on your Linux machine https://www.psychz.net/client/question/en/linux-server-firewall-configuration.html

In spite of the protection level that you have chosen, it is still recommended that you configure a firewall on your Linux system. Our DDoS system is highly capable of mitigating any kind of attacks protecting your system. However, there are more threats than just attacks. You may want to protect your system against viruses, malware, hacking, etc.

Psychz Networks have scrubbing facility at all our POPs spread across the globe at 10 locations. This allows our system to mitigate larger attacks when they reach our network.  Although we have the capacity of 200gbps in specific POP our peering level may have limited peering arrangements which may cause packet lost, re-transmissions, and latency issues when their peering arrangements are beyond their capacity. Therefore, to deal with larger attack size, with anycast DDOS systems we direct the bad traffic to multiple locations for scrubbing. This way a much larger attack is easily dealt with using "Divide and Conquer" rule.

To know more about our DDoS protection service, kindly visit https://www.psychz.net/ddos-mitigation.html

If you have furthermore queries regarding security or protection level, please write to our sales team at sales@psychz.net
