About S&Box

S&Box: the spiritual successor to Garry's Mod by Facepunch

S&Box is a sandbox game developed by Facepunch Studios, the creators of Garry's Mod and Rust. Built on Valve's Source 2 engine, it offers nearly unlimited creation and modding possibilities with next-generation graphics. The game lets you create and play an infinite variety of community-made gamemodes.

To host your custom gamemodes and welcome your community, a high-performance dedicated server is essential. Our S&Box servers run on AMD Ryzen processors with NVMe storage for optimal Source 2 performance. Hosted in Paris with Anti-DDoS GCORE, they guarantee a smooth gaming experience.

Gcore Anti-DDoS included

Your game server protected by Gcore

Game servers are the first targets of DDoS attacks. The Gcore network automatically filters UDP and TCP floods before they reach your server: your community stays connected without their latency suffering.

How the protection works

  1. 1

    Traffic is analysed by Gcore

    Traffic arriving through our transit providers goes through the Gcore scrubbing network, spread across Europe, America and Asia.

  2. 2

    Attacks are filtered out

    Gcore absorbs volumetric attacks; our internal filters complement the filtering when needed.

  3. 3

    Only legitimate traffic gets through

    It is routed to your server in our Paris infrastructure, on our own network AS199415.

Filtered attacks

  • UDP flood

    The most common vector against game servers and real-time services.

  • SYN / ACK flood

    TCP connection exhaustion meant to make the server unreachable.

  • DNS, NTP, Memcached amplification

    Volumetric reflection attacks, absorbed upstream.

  • HTTP flood (L7)

    Request bursts targeting your websites, panels and APIs.

Standard protection or Premium Anti-DDoS option?

Standard protection covers most use cases. If your service is a frequent target or highly sensitive to downtime, a Premium Anti-DDoS option may be needed: it is available on all our offers.

Standard

IncludedShown on the diagram
  • Automatic Gcore mitigation with a generic filtering profile
  • No monitoring or filter tuning for your service
  • Part of the traffic may arrive directly through our Internet exchange points (IX) and peerings, without going through Gcore scrubbing

Premium option

On every offer
  • Dedicated filters, tuned to your service's traffic profile (game, web, API)
  • Priority support: attack follow-up and rule tuning with our team
  • All traffic is forced through Gcore: no bypass possible via IX

Available as an option on all our offers: VPS, game servers, web hosting, dedicated servers and reseller.

The 200+ Tbps figure is the capacity of Gcore's global network, not a capacity reserved for each server. The filtering profile depends on the service and the network, and YorkHost may change its mitigation providers.
