Protecting a VPS against PathNet requires a layered approach. Key strategies include: 1) Utilizing a DDoS mitigation service that specializes in PathNet detection and mitigation (e.g., Cloudflare, Akamai). 2) Implementing BGP flowspec filtering to block malicious routing advertisements. 3) Configuring rate limiting and traffic shaping on the VPS itself. 4) Regularly updating the VPS's operating system and network software to patch vulnerabilities.
