DDoS Mitigation
Category: infrastructure
The process of protecting a network or service from distributed denial-of-service traffic attacks.
DDoS mitigation requires high-volume edge filtering networks. When a botnet slams an API gateway with millions of synthetic requests simultaneously, the mitigation layers use reverse-proxy configurations to drop malicious packets while passing legitimate user traffic cleanly.
Common Examples
- Our cloud edge routing group uses advanced DDoS mitigation to maintain directory access speeds during targeted volumetric attacks.
- Without proactive DDoS mitigation layers, a competitor-financed botnet can quickly exhaust your database server CPU pools.
