What is HSPO?

Discover how HSPO, the Hydra-Shield Power off operation, significantly reduced the impact of DDoS attacks on our platform. Explore how we monitor botnets through HSPO as well.

HSPO constantly monitors the entire internet for botnets. As soon as it detects one, it conducts a thorough analysis by identifying its owner and listing its victims. HSPO also provides a crucial feature: during attacks, each botnet leaves a distinct "signature," allowing us to precisely identify which botnet is attacking us, facilitating more effective blocking.

HSPO's continuous monitoring of the internet is a proactive measure to protect Hydra-Shield against potential attacks. This groundbreaking technology allows us to anticipate threats and better defend our clients against DDoS attacks, reducing the risk and downtime.

Additionally, HSPO certifies a pre-filter, ensuring increased protection against DDoS attacks upstream of our infrastructure, enhancing our ability to maintain service availability.
