DDoS (distributed denial-of-service)
A DDoS or Distributed Denial of Service is an attack against the server which uses a wide range of IP addresses to bombard the server with traffic. When these attacks become big enough it can cause websites on the server to become slow or unresponsive for short periods of time. In these cases there are steps that must be taken manually to stop the attack and get our servers running at full speed again.
DDoS attacks are not something HostingSpeed can warn customers about beforehand. When they occur please be assured that our team is doing everything possible to restore service as quickly as possible.
However, if an attacker targets your server, your server will be suspend/blackhole to ensure network stability and security.
Anyone using any means to intentionally disrupt, or overload third-party systems or services (aka engage in "DDoS" attacks) will have their account permanently disabled without refund.
