Description

Akamai Prolexic is a DDoS protection solution that helps organizations protect internet-facing infrastructure from attacks that can cause outages, service degradation, and network congestion. The platform supports cloud, on-premises, and hybrid deployments and can operate continuously or be activated on demand depending on an organization's requirements. Incoming traffic is routed through Prolexic, where mitigation controls inspect traffic, identify malicious activity, remove attack traffic, and forward clean traffic to the customer's infrastructure. Akamai provides 32 global anycast scrubbing centers and more than 20 Tbps of dedicated DDoS defense capacity within its broader network infrastructure of more than 1 Pbps. Prolexic includes dynamic mitigation controls for IPv4 and IPv6 traffic, network-wide access control lists, and firewall capabilities through Prolexic Network Cloud Firewall. Organizations can also use Prolexic over Akamai Direct Connect to establish private, high-performance connectivity between their origins and Akamai's DDoS protection infrastructure. Akamai provides a 100% Prolexic platform availability SLA and a zero-second mitigation SLA, with 24/7/365 support and optional managed security operations services. The service is backed by more than 225 frontline Security Operations Command Center defenders who assist customers before, during, and after attacks. Prolexic is intended for enterprises, network operators, cloud and hosting companies, and SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS providers requiring high-capacity DDoS protection across distributed infrastructure.
