Your website went down at 2 AM. Who picked up the phone?
For most businesses, the answer is: nobody.
This is the reality of relying on platforms built for millions of anonymous users. You're not a priority.
When an attack hits, our CSIRT team is already on it. Real specialists. Real response. No queue.
And while the big platforms route your traffic through US infrastructure, with all the GDPR implications that come with it, your data with us never leaves the EU.
Did you know that in April 2021, we were hit by what is likely the largest DDoS attack in Czech internet history?
Hundreds of gigabits per second. 72 hours of relentless assault. Attacks from every corner of the world.
👉 Even the most powerful hardware won't save you if the attack hits a single point.
That experience is exactly what sparked our vision for WEDOS Global Protection.

What's more expensive? DDoS protection, or 3 hours of downtime on a Friday afternoon?
Most website owners think attacks only happen to big companies. That no attacker has time to bother with a small e-shop.
Wrong.
Because if you don't understand the risk, you can't defend against it.

There's a common misconception about how DDoS protection works.
People imagine a wall. Traffic hits it, bad stuff bounces off.
The reality is closer to a river system.
The key insight is that the protection doesn't sit in front of your server. It sits at the edge of the internet, where the attack originates.
That's the difference between absorbing an attack and never receiving it.

Hop hop hop, don't let it drop, here's an attack that won't just stop, if the filter missed the top, captcha gives it quite a bop, Protection blocks it - every drop!
Happy Easter!
Introducing: CDN by WEDOS
Your data is available.
And at the same time… it isn’t.
With Schrödinger CDN™, we bring a new approach to content delivery. Every request is both successful and unsuccessful — until someone actually looks at it.
If your website works, it works perfectly.
If it doesn’t… you’re not entirely sure it was supposed to.
For enterprise customers, we offer Pendulum Cache™, where content is both cached and not cached, depending on who is asking.
Although we’re back in the office, our pace hasn’t slowed down. Following #cloudfest we’re directly building on the new connections we made and continuing discussions with potential clients we had the #opportunity to meet in person.
Do you know when your security stops working?
The moment someone “clogs” your internet connection.
In that situation, it doesn’t matter how good your firewall or server security is. If the attack reaches your network and saturates your link, nothing behind it can save you.
👉 That’s exactly why we presented WEDOS Global Protection at the IT Security Workshop.

[gtranslate]Speaker: Lukáš KosBeyond Hardware: Why Your DDoS Protection Can Fail Before Reaching Your Datacenter Last Thursday, we presented at the ITSW conference in Prague on a critical topic: the evolution of volumetric DDoS attacks. While these attacks used to be rare, current data shows they are becoming increasingly frequent and more powerful. However, the risk … <p class="link-more"><a href="https://blog.wedos.com/20-it-security-workshop-12-03-2026" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text"> "20.

👉 What is a volumetric attack ?
Attacker sends a massive amount of network traffic toward a server.
👉 Why this also affects small websites ?
Unlike other attacks, the attacker does not need to hack the application or the server.
👉 How to prevent these attacks?
Volumetric attacks need to be handled before the traffic reaches the server — at the infrastructure level.

🛡️ When people talk about protecting websites, most imagine a large attack that floods a server with massive amounts of traffic.
Instead of sending huge volumes of traffic, they generate large numbers of normal looking requests.
For example requests to login pages, search functions, shopping carts or APIs.
