Frequently Asked Questions
What is hybrid DDoS protection and how does it work?
Hybrid DDoS protection combines cloud-based always-on detection with on-premises mitigation. The cloud component continuously monitors traffic patterns and identifies threats in real-time, while the on-premises component provides localized defense, ensuring comprehensive protection with minimal latency and maximum availability.
How much DDoS attack protection does 16 Gbps provide?
The 16 Gbps capacity protects against large-scale volumetric attacks affecting enterprise networks. This bandwidth threshold is suitable for organizations experiencing moderate-to-high attack volumes, with scalability options available for growing security needs.
Is the Cisco 16G cloud DDoS service always active?
Yes, this is an always-on service that continuously monitors and protects your network 24/7. Threat detection and mitigation occur automatically without requiring manual activation, ensuring immediate response to emerging DDoS threats.
What types of DDoS attacks does this service protect against?
The service provides multi-layer protection against volumetric attacks (UDP floods, DNS amplification), protocol attacks (SYN floods, fragmented packets), and application-layer attacks (HTTP floods, Slowloris), covering the full spectrum of modern DDoS threats.
