In the sense being talked about here, yes. Sometimes providers term 'DDoS protection' as basic nullrouting when an attack hits therefore the term 'DDoS mitigation' avoids confusion.
Let me know if you did not find any yet, I can assist in L7 protection, L4 protection is not our specialty, but our L7 protection has never been taken down.
No, in most cases ddos protection is the size of a DDoS that is protected against (port size, firewalls or load balancers) whereas mitigation, is the ability to mitigate, or respond to a DDoS attack successfully.
We offer 5Gbps DoS / DDoS protection it is in house protection we developed anything over will be null routed, the protection is very low and I know this, but something is better than nothing.
DDoS filtering and DDoS mitigation are interchangeable. Now, DDoS protected is not necessarily the same thing. Some hosts are a bit deceptive and say "Well, we null route you, so you don't get charged with bandwidth overages, so you're technically DDoS protected". If there's no quantity, it probably means they just null route you. If they say "10 Gbps of Protection", that should mean you'll be able to accept attacks up to 10 Gbps.
It sounds more like you get hit with some large attacks! We offer 10 Gbps mitigation, which is enough for most attacks, but hitting over 20 Gbps is pretty crazy consistently.
