What is Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Protection?
Security threats targeting network infrastructure are increasing at alarming rates, and the size, complexity, and sophistication of these attacks are making it more challenging for individuals to protect their network resources.
Why risk having your firewall flooded when traffic can be directed away from your network before it gets to you?
A DDoS attack occurs when a network is targeted by multiple computers that flood the bandwidth resources of that network, slowing the network down to a crawl, or perhaps even crashing it. Think of it like a traffic jam, suddenly the road is flooded with many cars.
These attacks can originate from thousands of malware-infected host computers, thus stopping the attack using a simple ingress filter is impossible. Distinguishing legitimate users from attack
traffic can also be difficult.

Filtering
We can filter up to 5 Gb of malicious attack traffic from legitimate network traffic (90% of DDoS attacks are under 2 Gb).
If an attack is above 5 Gb we blackhole all traffic targeting your network to prevent network overload or total shut-down until the attack is over.
