Server Security Strategies at PineRiver

The world of online gaming is a marvel, exhilarating, and often unpredictable due to the sheer thrill of competing with players from across the globe. Recognizing the need for a flawless and secure gaming experience, PineRiver provides game server hosting services that guarantee not only performance, but robust security by deploying impressive server security strategies.

The Importance of Server Security

Building and maintaining a secure server is undoubtedly an important concern for both gamers and hosts. Hackers are always prowling, seeking vulnerabilities to exploit either for fun or more malicious reasons. Thus, it is important that every game hosted on a server has a meticulously devised security strategy.

At PineRiver, whether you are hosting Minecraft, Rust, Valheim, Counter-Strike 2 or any other game from our wide range of products, rest assured that a comprehensive approach towards server security is a fundamental aspect of our business.

Fencing with Firewalls

Our first line of defence is a well-configured firewall, reducing the attack surface by tightly controlling precisely what traffic is allowed in or out of your server. We only permit the data packets that are relevant to your game while keeping out everything else, ensuring that your Dedicated Servers are secure and less likely to be compromised.

Intrusion Detection Systems

We fortify the firewall with sophisticated Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS). These systems consistently monitor network traffic for suspicious activity and send timely alerts when they detect potential threats. Our highly skilled support team is always ready to react to these alerts, ensuring constant security vigilance.

Regular Updates and Patches

We understand the importance of keeping our servers up-to-date. Not only do updates provide new features and improved performance, but they often include security patches that fix known vulnerabilities. At PineRiver, we regularly update our game servers, including ARK: Survival Evolved, Garry's Mod, and Factorio among others.

Advanced DDoS Protection

Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks are notorious in the gaming industry. They flood your game server with excessive, redundant traffic causing it to become overwhelmed and unavailable to players. At PineRiver, we are equipped with advanced DDoS protection technologies to withstand such attacks, keeping your server up and running at all times.

Secure Data Centers

Our data centers are designed with security in mind. From strong physical security measures including 24/7 video surveillance and controlled access, to technological solutions like rigorous data encryption, we leave no stone unturned in securing the data of our customers.

Encryption

We leverage encryption technologies to secure communication between players and game servers. These technologies ensure that the data being transferred remains private and intact, thereby protecting players from third-party snooping and data corruption.

Proactive Monitoring

Last but far from the least, PineRiver employs proactive monitoring of all our servers. This involves continuously keeping an eye on server performance, available resources, and log files for any sign of problems. We swiftly address any detected issues before they become major problems.

So, whether you’re hosting DayZ, playing Conan Exiles, or hosting your own VPS or Webhost with PineRiver, you can game on with complete peace of mind, knowing that you’re protected by robust, comprehensive security strategies.
