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.

Description

Project Shield, developed by Google Cloud and Jigsaw and utilizing Google Cloud Armor, offers complimentary and limitless defense against DDoS attacks, which are malicious attempts to disrupt access to online information by overwhelming websites. It employs Google's robust infrastructure and advanced DDoS mitigation tools to filter out harmful traffic effectively. When a DDoS attack targets your website, the service ensures that our servers intercept and block the unwanted traffic, allowing your site to remain operational. Additionally, Project Shield can be set up to retrieve content from your website’s servers and serve a cached version to users during future requests, significantly reducing the load on your servers and enhancing resilience against potential DDoS threats. By caching content, the service not only fortifies DDoS defenses but also boosts website performance and conserves bandwidth, which is beneficial for all types of sites. Furthermore, users have the flexibility to invalidate cached content to meet specific site requirements. Enhanced security features within Project Shield include controls like JavaScript cookies and IP denylists to provide a higher level of protection for websites, ensuring a more secure browsing experience for visitors. Ultimately, this combination of features positions Project Shield as a powerful ally for any online presence seeking to maintain accessibility and integrity amidst cyber threats.
