Anti-DDoS

DDoS (Distributed Denial-of-Service) attacks are growing in number and evolving annually, and can slow or cripple your network performance.

Clean IX is a cutting-edge collaborative anti-DDoS service offered by NL-ix and supported by NaWas, the anti-DDoS service provided by The Dutch National Internet Providers Management Organisation (Nationale Beheersorganisatie Internet Providers or NBIP).

NaWas is a non-profit foundation founded by the internet community and technical specialists. This means that the operation and connection are easy to understand by its technical users.

If a customer is under attack, traffic is rerouted away from the server to the Clean IX service. The attacked traffic is scrubbed clean and then re-routed back over a separate VLAN. Clean IX is a powerful service for DDoS mitigation, and it is constantly improved to keep ahead of the latest attack techniques.
