Who IP Transit is for
Your upstream should do more than deliver bandwidth.
Shift provides IP Transit for hosting providers, ISPs, WISPs, FISPs, content platforms, enterprises, and network operators that care about route quality, flexibility, and direct control over how their traffic reaches the Internet.
A regional ISP may need a dependable second upstream. A hosting provider may care about route quality to major networks. A content platform may need high-capacity 10G IP Transit or 100G IP Transit ports and predictable growth. Shift can build the service around your location, bandwidth requirements and routing goals.

- AS-path prepending

Remote triggered blackholing (RTBH) is a routing control for discarding attack traffic to a prefix. It is not a managed DDoS mitigation product.
