Why Path.net + GoodLeaf?
We've partnered with Path.net, the global leader in game-traffic filtering, to provide an "Always-On" shield for your infrastructure.
17Tbps Network Capacity
Our network is built to absorb the world's largest volumetric DDoS attacks without breaking a sweat. Your server stays online through attacks that would flatten budget hosts.
Stateful Deep Packet Inspection
We don't just "block traffic." Our hardware performs deep packet inspection to separate malicious bots from your actual players — keeping your community connected while threats are neutralized.
Global Anycast Scrubbing
By scrubbing traffic at the edge across 22+ global nodes, we mitigate attacks closer to the source — keeping your latency (ping) stable even during an active assault.
Specialized Filters for FiveM, Rust, and Minecraft
Standard "Web" DDoS protection often kills game traffic by mistake. Our mitigation uses custom L7 filters specifically tuned for game protocols.
FiveM (CitizenFX)
Stop "Eulen" stressers and UDP floods that target FiveM heartbeats. Custom filters keep your txAdmin and game ports open only to real players.
Rust & Source Engine
Custom filters for A2S queries to prevent server-browser flooding. Keeps your Rust, CS2, and Source servers responsive during attacks.
Minecraft
Mitigation for "Bot" attacks and TCP-based connection floods that crash proxies. Protects BungeeCord, Velocity, and vanilla servers alike.
UDP/TCP Scrubbing
Advanced handling of fragmented packets that typically bypass budget firewalls. Full protocol-aware filtering at line rate.
Fast & Easy Setup
DDoS mitigation services can be easily setup same day, without the need for any additional hardware or software. Less downtime when under attacks.
Open-Source Multi-Layer Security
Multi-layered, open-source security stack means thousands of experts have reviewed the code used to build our network and security foundation.
Pricing That Makes Sense
Path Network offers affordable protection without taking advantage of those in an unfortunate situation. No premium "under attack" fees.
How our DDoS protection works
Advanced Protection Process.
Traffic Routing
All incoming traffic to your server is routed through Path.net's global anycast network with 22 worldwide nodes for optimal protection routing.
Attack Detection
Patented stateful mitigation technology tracks network communications and intelligently determines packet legitimacy based on observed activity patterns.
Attack Filtering
High-performance eBPF based XDP (eXpress Data Path) programs provide line-rate packet filtering - the fastest way to detect and manage unwanted traffic.
Clean Traffic Delivery
Only verified, legitimate traffic reaches your server through Path.net's 17Tbps network capacity, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
Continuous Monitoring
Tier 3, 24x7 support from experienced staff members with phone, email, and live chat to ensure any issues are solved quickly and efficiently.
How GRE Tunneling Works
Our GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation) tunnel creates a secure pathway between your existing server and Path.net's protection network. All traffic is routed through their 17Tbps anycast network where attacks are filtered out before clean traffic reaches your server. Zero configuration changes needed on your end.
GRE Tunnel Setup
We establish a GRE tunnel between your server and our network. Your existing hosting setup remains unchanged while all traffic flows through Path.net's scrubbing centers first, blocking attacks before they reach you.
Direct Connection Setup:
Perfect for servers where clients connect directly via IP address, while all traffic flows through our GRE tunnel protection.
Path.net Technology
Powered by Path.net's patented stateful mitigation technology and XDP-based line-rate packet filtering. Their open-source security stack has been reviewed by thousands of experts for maximum reliability.
Advanced Protection:
Leverages Path.net's globally distributed network with 22 scrubbing centers for maximum attack mitigation capacity.

Protection & Attacks
How we stop attacks and keep you online.
Will my ping go up when I'm being attacked?
No. Because we use an Anycast network with 17Tbps of capacity, the malicious traffic is "scrubbed" at the nearest edge node. Your players won't even notice an attack is happening. Latency remains sub-millisecond during active mitigation.
Do you block "Eulen" or specific FiveM stressers?
Yes. Our filters are constantly updated to recognize the signatures of the latest FiveM-specific attack tools, including Eulen, UDP floods targeting heartbeats, and other stresser tools. We ensure your txAdmin and game ports remain open only to real players.
Is the protection really free on hosting plans?
Absolutely. We believe DDoS protection is a requirement for modern hosting, not a luxury add-on. Whether you are on a Budget VPS or a High-End Dedicated Server, you get the full 17Tbps shield included in the price. No "protection taxes" or hidden fees.
What size attacks can Path.net handle?
Path.net's network can mitigate attacks up to 17Tbps through their global anycast infrastructure with 22+ scrubbing centers worldwide. They've successfully defended against some of the largest attacks on record using patented stateful mitigation technology and XDP-based packet filtering.
