Jakarta – The need for protection against cyber attacks based on distributed denial of service (DDoS) is increasing in line with rising digital activity across various industry sectors. Digital infrastructure service providers are expanding their attack mitigation capacity to maintain business service stability and prevent operational disruptions.

The cloud and hosting service provider IDCloudHost has increased its Anti-DDoS capacity through an international partnership with global cybersecurity company StormWall. The collaboration is conducted via the international business entity Cloud Host Pte Ltd.

The partnership yields integration with StormWall’s scrubbing centre network, distributed across several regions globally. The system enables mitigation processes to occur before malicious traffic reaches customer servers.

IDCloudHost also increases regional protection capacity up to 1 Tbps, distributed through scrubbing nodes in Singapore, Hong Kong, and Jakarta. This move is intended to speed up traffic filtering and maintain service stability during traffic spikes caused by cyber attacks.

Chief Technology Officer of IDCloudHost, Faisal Reza, said that DDoS attacks today are increasingly complex and massive, requiring protection systems with large capacity and real-time response.

“DDoS attacks are becoming more complex and massive. Therefore, the collaboration between IDCloudHost and StormWall focuses on delivering protection with large capacity and real-time response,” Faisal said in a statement on Friday (22 May 2026).

According to him, the Anti-DDoS service is developed through three protection layers, namely website protection, server protection, and network protection.

At the website level, the system filters traffic to reduce server load and keep access performance stable. At the server level, protection is applied to TCP and UDP traffic without restricting ports or traffic volume.

Additionally, the system analyses traffic in real time to detect suspicious activity on the network. DNS protection, automatic notifications, and API support are prepared to help customers monitor network conditions comprehensively.

IDCloudHost says all customers can access the DDoS Protection Network facility without restrictions on the amount of traffic or ports. The protection system also operates automatically upon activation of the service without requiring additional configuration from users.

The company is also beginning to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) technology to detect traffic anomalies and predict potential attacks before they occur.

“With capacities of up to 1 Tbps regionally and global technology support of more than 5 Tbps, customers no longer need to worry about disruptions from DDoS attacks,” said Faisal.

The service targets sectors with high traffic such as banking, internet service providers, education, and government agencies.
