Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks threaten businesses with downtime that can be damaging to their brand and reputation and even lead to financial losses. With the many IoT device-powered botnets and "for-hire" DDoS services, the threat and complexity of an attack is now greater than ever.
Attacks against the network, DNS, and TLS tiers can render your networks, applications, or other supporting infrastructure inaccessible. Especially network layer attacks can consume massive CPU resources on the defence side.
F5 can identify the attack traffic via a multi-layered DDoS mechanism and offload the mitigation into an integrated Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) acceleration card (SmartNIC).
