ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended DDoS protection by Maelstrom Network

Why ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended servers get attacked

Uptime is the whole game

ARK tribes and rival clusters use DDoS to force offline base raids — take the server down, then raid while defenders can't log in. Protecting your cluster keeps it reachable and takes that weapon away.

Anycast, near your players

Your ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended address is announced from every Cloudflare location at once — Manila and Singapore for most of South East Asia — so traffic enters at the nearest edge.

Your real IP stays hidden

Players connect to the address we give you on UDP. Your server's real IP stops being public, so it stops being a target.

Keep real player IPs

Turn on PROXY protocol and your ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended server still logs each player's real IP for bans and analytics — no more seeing only the edge address.

FAQ

ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended protection, answered

What ports does ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended use, and do you cover them?

ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended runs on UDP — game 7777, raw 7778, query 27015. All of it sits behind our anycast edge; you point the service at us and we forward clean traffic to your origin.

Will my ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended server still see players' real IPs?

Yes, if you turn on PROXY protocol at checkout and read it on your side. v1 works with TCP, Simple with UDP, v2 with both. Without it your server sees our edge address instead.

How fast can I get my ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended server protected?

Minutes. Pay by card, give us your backend IP and port, and we hand you a public address to give your players. Mitigation is always-on from that moment.

Keep your ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended server online

Protected in minutes. No hardware, no contract, from $5.00/month.
