Ask YC: DDoS protection
I'm looking at launching an anti-spam service in the next year or so and since spammers occasionally target them with DDoS attacks I was wondering if anyone can recommend:
1)Good/Cheap DDoS protection software
2)Good/Cheap DDoS protected colo or dedicated providers
3)Good/Cheap DDoS protection services (a la proxy shield).

- davidu 19y agoYou need to learn a lot more about DDoS if you think you can just hook up prolexic and be protected from DDoS. Figure out your economics or bring on someone who has been there before.
