MITIGATING MULTIPLE DDOS AACK VECTORS
By recognizing the four main categories of attack, security professionals can mitigate even previously unknown vectors:
1. Volumetric :Flooding
2. Computational Asymmetric : Consuming CPU cycles
3. Stateful Asymmetric : Abusing memory
4. Vulnerability-based : Exploiting software vulnerabilities
5. Blended DDoS : Combination of multiple attack vectors Security professionals need to understand How to plug the security gap from Layers 3 to 7, and protect against multi-layer attacks, with a full proxy security architecture. It's time torethink and refine the enterprise security architecture, so organizations can remain agile and resilient against future threats.
