Description
AWS Shield is a comprehensive managed service designed to protect applications hosted on AWS from Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. This service features continuous detection and automatic inline mitigation capabilities that significantly reduce both application downtime and latency, making it unnecessary to contact AWS Support for DDoS defense. AWS Shield is available in two levels: Standard and Advanced. Every AWS customer automatically benefits from the protective features of AWS Shield Standard at no extra cost. This tier offers robust defense against the most prevalent network and transport layer DDoS threats targeting websites and applications. Furthermore, when AWS Shield Standard is used in conjunction with Amazon CloudFront and Amazon Route 53, users gain extensive protection against all known infrastructure attacks at Layers 3 and 4, ensuring optimal availability and performance. By leveraging these services, organizations can enhance their resilience against malicious traffic while maintaining a seamless user experience.
Description
The occurrence of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks is on the rise, with 53 percent of organizations indicating they experience over 51 attacks monthly, an increase from 44 percent the previous year. Sectors such as Financial Services, Hosting/E-Commerce, and Government are particularly vulnerable targets. To effectively combat the increasingly advanced DDoS attacks, organizations, regardless of their Internet service provider, need high-capacity scrubbing centers that are regionally distributed, coupled with network controls to minimize latency and ensure optimal performance. To address and mitigate the impact of these traffic flood attacks that seek to incapacitate servers, applications, websites, and networks, the Lumen DDoS Mitigation Service offers a robust cloud-based solution that can absorb harmful traffic through numerous globally positioned scrubbing centers during an attack, directing only legitimate traffic to the customer's public-facing addresses. This capability allows organizations to maintain their online presence and service availability even in the face of relentless cyber threats.
