About This Feature
DDoS Protected VPS UK from Glitch Servers provides scalable virtual infrastructure running on bare-metal AMD Ryzen hardware - backed by AMD Ryzen hardware, NVMe Gen4 storage, and UK-native routing through AS212868. DDoS attacks against VPS infrastructure have grown in both frequency and scale. Small servers are targeted by botnets acting opportunistically; popular game servers face sustained campaigns from rival players; e-commerce sites are attacked by competitors during peak trading periods. Our DDoS protection architecture handles all of it automatically. Scrubbing sits upstream of every UK VPS node, inspecting traffic before it reaches your server. Volumetric attacks are detected within seconds and filtered without impacting legitimate traffic - and the protection is included on every plan, not sold as an add-on.
Performance on Glitch VPS plans is driven by AMD Ryzen 9 7950X processors - single-core clock speeds that handle application workloads, database queries, and concurrent web traffic without the CPU credit limits that cap performance on burstable cloud instances. Storage runs on NVMe Gen4 drives with sequential read speeds of 3,500 MB/s, eliminating the I/O bottleneck that affects VPS plans running on SATA SSD or shared SAN.
Glitch Servers operates AS212868 with direct peering at LINX and LONAP - the London Internet Exchange and London Access Point - providing low-latency paths to BT, Virgin Media, Sky, TalkTalk, and other major UK ISPs without unnecessary Continental European hops. For users connecting across the UK, that translates to consistent single-digit-to-low-double-digit millisecond round-trip times under normal UK network conditions.
Every plan includes Corero Smartwall inline DDoS mitigation operating at the network edge. Traffic scrubbing runs continuously without latency penalty, absorbing volumetric floods before they reach the hypervisor layer. Full plan specifications and pricing are on the UK VPS hosting page.
Key Benefits
Every plan includes these capabilities as standard - no tier-gating, no hidden extras.
Always-on scrubbing sits upstream of every VPS node - attacks are filtered before they reach your server
1Tbps mitigation capacity handles volumetric floods that would saturate a typical data centre uplink
Multi-vector attack detection identifies and filters UDP floods, SYN floods, HTTP floods, and amplification attacks
Automatic detection within seconds - no manual intervention needed, no tickets to raise during an attack
Technical Specifications
Real specs on real hardware - not marketing numbers.
DDoS scrubbing on all UK VPS nodes - always-on, never an optional upgrade
1Tbps+ mitigation capacity against volumetric, protocol, and application-layer DDoS attacks
Automatic detection and response within 5-10 seconds of attack onset
Use Cases
This feature is particularly well suited to these workloads and teams.
Game server operators face the highest DDoS attack frequency of any hosting category. Always-on protection keeps your server online when rival players try to take it down.
Online shops are attacked during peak trading periods by competitors and extortionists. DDoS protection ensures your checkout stays up when attacks are most likely.
Publicly accessible APIs and SaaS platforms are attractive DDoS targets. Upstream scrubbing protects availability without adding any application-layer configuration.
