ICN’s Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Mitigation solution provides a protected security solution. Bandwidth never becomes overwhelmed and online resources stay available. A DDoS attack occurs when bad online actors exhaust firewall resources and bandwidth to overburden firewall logs and online storage.
Service is only available to ICN Internet customers.
Why Do We Need DDoS Mitigation?
DDoS attacks can be expensive. When you consider the time and cost of being unable to run your business, it can skyrocket. Your employees would spend time:
responding to issues
potentially losing data
infected equipment
other considerations
The best way to deal with attacks is prevention. Firewalls are a great start but they are not enough protection.
DDoS Mitigation Service Benefits
Listing and explaining the benefits of using ICN's DDoS Mitigation services
The design consultation includes the development of an End User’s mitigation alert policy, appropriate response procedures, and defines customer requirements.
Our comprehensive installation includes a customer security review and setting up the attack-detection system. The End User will maintain an ICN Internet connection.
Our solution includes setting up the mitigation service and applying the security policy.
Our advanced monitoring system incorporates automatic detection of attacks. End User traffic is monitored continuously.
Our service includes on-going evaluation and optimization of network and system performance.
This incorporates software and hardware upgrades to maintain the latest operations’ version.
Mitigation (filtering) of traffic begins after the attack-detection system determines that a DDoS attack is underway.
Once mitigation begins, traffic is routed to the ICN Cleansing Center. The traffic immediately undergoes the stages to remove the malicious activity. Once cleansing is completed, traffic will be forwarded from the ICN Cleansing Center to its original destination.
We move compromised traffic to an ICN cleansing center for filtering and mitigation.
Do you have protection against DDoS Attacks?
DDoS mitigation is critical for safeguarding organizations from cyberattacks and should be included in every effective cybersecurity plan.
Our solution includes configuring multiple appliances to:
protect ICN assets
secure our customer's Internet Services
In most cases, if the appliance detects a DDoS attack, it will automatically mitigate the event. This delivers the secure connection that our customers trust.
We typically mitigate the following types of DDoS attacks:
packet filtering
rate limiting
blackholing
geo-fencing
challenge-response
