xHOSTING knowledge base
What security basics do the game servers use?
xHOSTING game servers run on limited, non-oversold capacity with server-side protection and DDoS protection and multi-layer traffic filtering.
Why does game server protection matter?
Game servers are public-facing services, so overload attempts and bad configuration can quickly cause issues.
What protection layers are used?
xHOSTING uses DDoS protection and multi-layer traffic filtering, server-side firewall protection and separated resource handling for game servers.
- DDoS protection and multi-layer traffic filtering
- server-side firewall protection
- separated resources
- non-oversold capacity
What does this not mean?
It does not mean unlimited attack protection and it does not replace a properly configured game server. The goal is more stable and predictable operation for smaller communities.
