We’re excited to announce the launch of the next generation of DDoS protection, available on-demand with transparent pricing in the Inter.link portal.
The new DDoS Protection service is based on Inter.link’s carrier-grade AS5405 network and combines high -capacity DDoS filtering with a self-service portal that offers pricing and ordering transparency, along with the company’s dedication to environmental sustainability.
This launch follows Inter.link’s strategic alliance with the DDoS specialist RioRey, which greatly expanded the company’s protection capacity across Europe.
Secure Connectivity Is Also Sustainable
“Today’s organizations shouldn’t have to choose between secure connectivity and environmental responsibility,” stated Theo Voss, Inter.link Co-Founder and CEO.
“Our new DDoS Protection service offering represents a fundamental shift in how companies can understand and provision security services, offering enterprise-grade protection that is delivered across a certified carbon neutral network.”
Key features of the new DDoS Protection service include:
- Robust DDoS infrastructure protection capacity integrated directly into Inter.link’s sustainable IP transit network
- Real-time threat monitoring
- Automated mitigation triggering via API and BGP route signaling
- Self-service portal where customers can view transparent pricing and order IP transit, IP access, Flex Ethernet, and DDoS protection services on-demand.
- Transparent, fixed, and predictable pricing model
- Carbon-neutral network operations with PAS 2060 certification
Unlike most traditional solutions in the market, Inter.link’s service operates on its own backbone with several current and a continuously growing number of scrubbing centers, eliminating the need for complex GRE tunnels or network reconfigurations.
What else makes Inter.link’s DDoS Protection unique?
Transparency is hugely important to Inter.link and this is reflected in our portal where pricing is easily visible across three tiers: Plus, Premium, and Enterprise.
Futhermore, in contrast to other DDoS service offerings, Inter.link DDoS services are not billed on “Clean Traffic” or “Number of Attacks” – which is neither predictable nor influenceable for most customers – but on easy to determine feature sets .
It is easy for customers to know what to expect because the tiers make clear what is included, and pricing is only based on the level of protection and the number of Prefixes protected.
Quick Tour of DDoS Protection in the Portal
The portal shows what services you have provisioned, along with what else is available. Inter.link values transparency, so we also included our ASN statistics at the top! And above are links to settings, support tickets, our knowledgebase and API.
When provisioning DDoS Protection, remember you need to already have an IP Access or IP Transit service!
You can choose between 5 (the minimum option), 10, or 15 networks to protect, or you can pick the custom option. The Plus, Premium, and Enterprise tiers make it easy to configure DDoS Protection that suits you best, along with choosing between 12-, 24-, or 36-month protection terms.
The Mitigation Center gives a clear overview of your network traffic, including zone control for a breakdown of any required mitigation, an IP search function with filters for efficiency and precision, and net statistics for both zone and group.

What do clients say about Inter.link’s DDoS Protection?
Inter.link’s DDoS service isn’t new—we’ve been protecting customers for years. It’s always gratifying to hear how secure connectivity is helping our customers’ business.
“Thanks to Inter.link, we can deliver a better service to our customers,” said Nicolas Korten, System Engineer at komro. “Due to automation, DDoS mitigation is now much easier to handle. As a cherry on the top, we got high quality IP transit and a provider with a green footprint.”
Christoph Streit, CEO and Co-Founder of ScaleUp Technologies said, “We chose open hardware and software to do a lot of the work ourselves at ScaleUp Technlogies because we prefer to have more control and flexibility, however, we chose Inter.link for DDoS protection due to their expertise in building a neat and robust solution, their large network, and because they are a local, like-minded provider who is focused on the best speed and performance for customers.”
