Hello, I’m trying to understand more about these 3 Ddos protection/ IP hiders I’ve heard each of these names being used and don’t know the differences, would anyone be able to enlighten me? Thanks

OVH

Server provider

NFO

Info file.

VPN

VPN.

How does one arrive to the conclusion that these 3 acronyms are what you say they are?

I don’t know, that’s why I’m asking for more information… how can I know more than the only 3 words I’ve heard to date

5

I’m just curious where you heard them that associated them with DDOS protection or IP “hiding”.

Obviously VPN has been bastardized and made into something it’s not by several companies for years.

But the other 2 are strange to hear associated with anything of the sort.

When I used to be on PS3 I had a jailbroken system and had a lot of friends then that also had jailbroke systems, through friends and other modders or boosters I’ve heard NFO as well on top of VPN as a “better version of a VPN” and recently when I’ve tried looking up the difference between NFO and VPN I saw another word get thrown in there, “OVH”

NFO

That’s a file extension. It has nothing to do with VPN at all.

OVH

A VPS/Server provider. Nothing to do with VPN aside from sometimes people spin up VPS to run their own VPN.

None of this has anything to do with hiding your IP or DDOS protection.

I’ve heard of NFO as a nuclear fallout shelter, I’m trying to read more into whatever that is

I don’t know about that one cause 2–3 years ago I would run on a OVH for DDoS protection from people using crappy stressers and decent botnets same for the NFO the provider would say nuclear fallout enterprises anyway I can be wrong been so long, but I know OVH provides Private servers that prevent DDoS attacks many companies rebrand them also like OctoOVH.

I feel it’s a strong vps that is being used as a vpn, it’s a common thing in the DDos Community, it’s the only way to stay online without changing ur ip.A example is XboxCriminal on YouTube has a sever he rents from cloud flare to be “unhittable” and hasnt been hit off by 350gb attacks.

I used to run OVH long time ago and Sharktech and lag Awknet. Goofy annoying Brenker.
