DDOS Protection
What about DDOS Protection in Plesk?

After careful consideration, we have decided to close the request as "Already available” because several tools already are available in Plesk to protect websites against DDoS attacks. You can find the information about the solutions at What DDoS protection tools are available in Plesk.
If you are interested in a more specific tool and/or solution, please create a new request and let us know how this feature should work in terms of workflow, in your opinion.

The size of a ddos that can be mitigated by a single server is rather small, especially if it's an application-layer attack (i.e. https web application).
There are cheap and easy CDN's to mitigate these types of attacks, that will do a far better job of it.

Protection against DDoS attacks in Fail2Ban.
As instance, X HTTP/s requests in X time -> BAN -

Is DDos-Protection not a part of free service from your server provider and part of modsecurity(fail2ban)?
Hetzner have it free https://www.hetzner.de/unternehmen/ddos-schutz/ (german)
So is this feature request really needed? -

And if you drop packages use XDP ;-)
Seems to perform very good...

ddos attacks are one of the most common attacks, so why should a Plesk user not want them to be protected against such attacks ??

Isn't fail2ban made for that? Besides other things. Also, CloudFlare provides this service but it is poorly implemented right now (only partial CNAME setup).

distributed denial of service is a real big problem for service providers.
there should be a good solution to prevent from ddos. -

This could be a easy addition to the firewall extension.
There's a list of effective iptable rules here: https://javapipe.com/iptables-ddos-protectionIt's fairly effective against a DDOS and it shuts a simple DOS down completely.
Some options would be nice but even the default values are effective enough.
