DDoS protection

Attack traffic is filtered inline on our network by GTT Core DDoS protection, before it reaches your service. Protection reduces the impact of attacks, but no filtering can stop everything.

IPv4 and IPv6

Our network is dual stack, carrying both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic, so visitors on either protocol can reach your service.

Optimised routing

We tune how traffic enters and leaves our network to favour good paths, so you get the best network connectivity we can provide.
