DDoS Protection
Four Types of Attacks, One Common Challenge
DDoS attacks are rapidly evolving in frequency and unpredictability. While the objective is still to cause a service outage, attacks and attackers are becoming more sophisticated. While the threat landscape continues to expand, attacks continue to fall within four types: volumetric, asymmetric, computational, and vulnerability-based.
Defensive mechanisms have evolved to deal with these different categories, and today’s high-profile organizations have learned to deploy them in specific arrangements to maximize their security posture. By working with these companies and fine-tuning their components, a recommended DDoS protection architecture has been developed, that can accommodate specific data center size and industry requirements.
One Comprehensive Solution
A DDoS Protection solution protects the fundamental elements of an application (network, DNS, SSL, and HTTP) against distributed denial-of-service attacks.
Leveraging the intrinsic security capabilities of intelligent traffic management and application delivery, a DDoS solution protects and ensures availability of an organization's network and application infrastructure under the most demanding conditions.
Protection at All Layers
The components of a DDoS solution support high-scale, high-performance architectures with full-proxy, deep application fluency.
They provide intrinsic security because they are inline and already inspecting every single user connection instead of sampling or watching traffic off a mirrored port.
Challenges
Constant Evolution of Attacks
DDoS aackers' tactics are evolving and causing damage in multiple ways, continually affecting users around the globe.
