Introducing a brand new addon product to Apex Hosting – MCShield! With this service, your connection will be faster and more secure. It prevents up to 296Tbps worth of attacks, meaning nothing can take down your game server. This comes in handy for large networks or communities with various players joining throughout the day. With this in mind, let’s learn more about MCShield.
What is MCShield?
The MCShield addon for Apex Hosting game servers is DDoS protection and a rerouting of connections. In other words, your server will be extremely protected while also being upgraded with improved speed. With our new subdomain system, MCShield will be automatically deployed and act as your shield. This wouldn’t change your existing domain, but may impact external domains registered on GoDaddy, Namecheap, or other services.
Here are the features and side-notes about the MCShield addon!
