A reverse proxy sits in front of web servers, receiving client requests and forwarding them to backend servers while hiding the server’s real IP.

Many providers combine reverse proxies with a Backconnect Proxy system on the backend to rotate outgoing IPs, adding an extra layer of anonymity and protection against DDoS attacks. /
