Everyone is talking about DDoS recently. DDoS attacks will not only damage the money, service and reputation of victims, but with the rapid development of the Internet, its defense is quite difficult. The report shows that more than 65% of DDoS attacks cause losses of up to US$10,000 per hour to the victim companies. So how to build a comprehensive response strategy for the enterprise and choose a more suitable and ideal DDoS defense service? Read this article, you can find the answer.
Before considering which DDoS protection strategy is best for you, it's important to understand the ever-changing types of DDoS attacks as attackers become more sophisticated. Keep in mind that bots (botnets) in large numbers are the most common attack vector. Identifying any type of attack would be a breeze if the bot activity on each component could be determined. Adversaries may also use combinations of several of these attack types, which means organizations must develop a flexible and comprehensive DDoS protection architecture. Currently, there are three main types of anti-DDoS services: local DDOS protection, cloud-based hosting services, and hybrid DDoS protection architecture.
Integrated on-premises solutions provide tight control and flexibility, but are quickly overwhelmed by massive volumetric attacks. Cloud-based hosting services can protect against these large-scale attacks, but can be very expensive to protect all traffic at all times. By using a combination of on-premises security appliances and cloud scrubbing services to handle volumetric attacks, organizations can employ cloud protection services as needed to handle large-scale volumetric flood attacks while maintaining control.
Furthermore, when choosing the most suitable defense against DDoS services, one should weigh the probability of being attacked against the ability to effectively mitigate such attacks. Selecting a vendor that provides security services across all defense architectures can help meet current and future changing needs.
