GChat is pleased to announce that from today, all our hosted chat customers will receive a comprehensive 10 Gbps DDoS protection service with their package, at no extra cost! 

DDoS stands for a distributed denial of service attack. It is a particularly vicious and illegal means of taking down a site or service by flooding it with a high rate of bogus access requests. Such an attack is usually achieved through a distributed network of compromised PCs, posing a significant threat to flash chats and personal online communities, and even large corporate infrastructures.

GChat felt that our hosted chat clients would benefit greatly from the extra peace of mind afforded by reliable and comprehensive protection. This new feature will ensure that in case of an attack, your service will not be interrupted. The customer will not need to install or configure anything themselves, as we will take care of everything. 

We now offer a solid protection against attacks up to and inclusive of 10 Gbps DDoS Protection. This rate should cover most common denial of service scenarios and protection needs of our customers. 

As always, if you have any questions you would like to ask about this service update, please do not hesitate to get in touch with a member of our team. We will be glad to answer any queries you may have.
