SDP as a DDOS Prevention Mechanism - Seguridad Mania.com - España y América Latina

Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks are one of the most prevalent types of cyber attack, and their numbers are only climbing. DDoS attacks are large-scale incursions in which the perpetrator uses more than one unique source IP address (often thousands of them) to launch simultaneous attacks against a target. Organizations should be aware of this threat and on the lookout for the best DDoS mitigation methods. In this presentation, the speaker will discuss Software Defined Perimeter (SDP) as a tool to protect private services from DDoS attacks. SDP is an architecture that provides integrated security, which is otherwise hard to achieve with existing security point products. SDP is efficient and effective against several well-known attacks, including HTTP Flood, TCP SYN, and UDP Reflection.
