Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks attempt to overload available resources to deny access to a computer service to targeted users.
DDoS attacks vary in their means and objectives, but are generally a concerted effort by one or more people to temporarily or indefinitely prevent the efficient or complete functioning of a website or service on the Internet.
By combining devices monitoring our core network with a global network of on demand, cloud-based traffic scrubbing centers from a market-leading DDoS mitigation provider, we dynamically distinguish between normal traffic and attack traffic originating from malicious or native sources.
To distinguish between normal and attack traffic, we complement our dedicated DDoS mitigation devices with our proprietary DDoS mitigation capabilities to create a superset of DDoS mitigation tools that can support targeted scrubbing algorithms.
Our network engineers analyze alerts from our on-net monitoring solutions that indicate an attack.
