DDoS Mitigation
DDoS Mitigation withIndustry-Leading Solution
Challenges
Persistent Attacks, Ongoing Damage
Ceaseless DDoS Attacks
DDoS is old but remains one of the most formidable cyber-attacks. In particular, recent DDoS traffic is difficult to distinguish from regular traffic, making it even more challenging to take down. These attacks employ widespread IoT devices, evolving methods like the “Distributed Reflection Denial of Service (DRDoS)”, and stealthy techniques like source IP spoofing.
Multi-Layered Approach
A linear approach to DDoS mitigation is less likely to succeed. Organizations must design the multi-layered security architecture by leveraging threshold-based rules, authentication methods, and scrubbing centers (if necessary) to achieve near-perfect DDoS mitigation.
DDoS-Optimized Security Strategy
We acknowledge the inherent difficulty of achieving 100% prevention against DDoS attacks, so we use the term “mitigation” instead of “defense”, and focus on an adequate response. For a successful DDoS mitigation, it is crucial to run DDoS-specialized solutions like AhnLab DPX at peak levels with correct configurations.
Solution
DDoS-Optimized Solution: Transcending Traditional Network Security
Existing network security products like firewall and intrusion prevention system (IPS) partially delivers DDoS mitigation features, but more is needed to tackle advanced DDoS attacks. AhnLab DPX, fully committed to DDoS response, is designed to systematically mitigate a variety of DDoS attacks without compromising the performance of other network security appliances and ultimately enhance organization-wide business continuity.
