Our story

vShield was founded in 2017 with a simple goal: provide virtual and dedicated servers with genuinely dedicated resources — no overselling — and DDoS protection included from the start, not as a paid add-on. Since then we have expanded our infrastructure to 10+ datacenters worldwide while keeping that same principle across every plan.

A registered Quebec company

vShield Services Inc. is a legally registered company in Quebec, Canada. Business number (NEQ): 1179528642. Headquarters: Montréal, Québec. Our Montreal datacenters operate under Quebec Law 25 and PIPEDA — your data stays on Canadian territory.

Our infrastructure

We operate KVM nodes on AMD Ryzen 9 7900 (DDR5), Intel i9-14900K (DDR5) and Intel Xeon Gold in Tier III facilities in Montréal, Paris, New York, Los Angeles, Frankfurt, Singapore, Hong Kong and the United Kingdom. Every datacenter has redundant power, multi-carrier connectivity and 24/7 physical security.

DDoS protection: included, not sold

Unlike some providers that sell DDoS mitigation as a separate module, vShield activates it on every VPS and dedicated server from provisioning. UDP flood, SYN flood, DNS/NTP amplification and HTTP flood (L7) are filtered upstream on the network, with no configuration needed on your end.

Bilingual support

Our support team operates in both English and French. Live chat response time: under 5 minutes. Tickets: under 24 hours. Our technicians handle infrastructure, migrations and custom configurations.
