Achieve comprehensive protection against DoS and DDoS attacks for your apps and APIs with a multi-layered, adaptive, automated mitigation strategy for DevOps environments. Running natively on NGINX Plus and NGINX Ingress Controller, NGINX App Protect DoS is platform-agnostic and supports deployment options ranging from edge load balancers to individual pods in Kubernetes clusters.

NGINX App Protect DoS Defends Apps and APIs from Layer 7 DoS Attacks

Why Use NGINX App Protect DoS

Mitigate DDoS Attack Types

Protect against multiple Layer 7 DDoS attack types that evade traditional network defenses. With NGINX App Protect DoS you can:

  • Protect traditional HTTP/S and modern HTTP/2 apps – plus gRPC and WebSocket traffic – against various low-and-slow DDoS attacks including Slow POST, Slow Read, Slowloris and more
  • Block GET and POST flood attacks which overwhelm the server or API with a high volume of requests, rendering it unable to respond to real users
  • Block Challenger Collapsar attacks where frequent requests appear normal except the requested URI requires complicated computations designed to exhaust server resources
  • Accurately detect bad actors using encryption or NAT to evade detection using TLS fingerprinting for IPv4 in combination with IP address
  • Ensure app uptime and protect against targeted SSL/TLS attacks that abuse the handshake protocol using a signatures mechanism for anomaly detection and mitigation based on the CLIENT HELLO message

Support for Security Automation, DevSecOps, and Shift Left

Enable a shift-left strategy where DoS protection is incorporated into every stage of the software development lifecycle (SDLC). With NGINX App Protect DoS you can:

  • Implement DevSecOps with seamless integration of changes to your configured security posture into your CI/CD pipelines with security-as-code for Layer 7 DoS defense
  • Apply consistent app and API DoS protection with declarative security policies created by SecOps and deployed by DevOps
  • Enable cost-effective DDoS protection at scale with no-touch configuration
  • Leverage easy policy integration via the Kubernetes API
  • Keep developers agile and focused on delivering new capabilities, accelerating time to market at a reduced cost
