We’ve updated the operating system lineup for our VPS SSD plans, and we want to show you that running your own server is no longer a job for tech wizards. If you can handle email, Excel, and the occasional router setup, you can click your way to your own server in minutes. And if you get stuck, an AI assistant (like ChatGPT) will guide you through it.

wp-login.php is one of the best-known files in WordPress. It is normally used to log in to the administration, so it has long been a popular target for brute force attacks. Let us look at data from WEDOS Global Protection logs.
From detection to deployment – How a new security rule is created in WEDOS Global Protection
Since the middle of last year, we have been working on a new infrastructure for the WEDOS Global Protection (WGP) service. The goal was to build a solution that is more robust, faster, easier to maintain, and capable of deploying more advanced detection mechanisms.

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 of upstream saturation is often underestimated.

Over the past year, WEDOS Global Protection has come a long way. Thanks to feedback from testers, customers and interested professionals, we have taken it to a completely different level.

On the second of January 2023 began the history of the newly founded event department, which was created by the admission of its first and at that time only member, a new colleague Lenka. Lenka has two small children and joined WEDOS after parental leave. At the time, she had little experience in organizing events, so this position was all the more challenging for her.
