Lumen DDoS Mitigation Services Description
Distributed Denial of Service attacks (DDoS), are more frequent -- 53 percent of organizations report that they see more than 51 attacks per months -- an increase of 44 percent from last year. Top targets are organizations in the Financial Services, Hosting/E-Commerce, and Government sectors. No matter what Internet provider you use, mitigating sophisticated DDoS attacks today requires high-capacity, regionally located scrubbing centers, network controls to reduce latency, and maintain performance. Lumen DDoS Mitigation Services is a cloud-based system that detects and blocks traffic flood attacks to reduce or crash servers, websites, and applications. It uses a dozen globally distributed scrubbing centres to absorb malicious traffic and forward legitimate traffic to the customer's web addresses.
