Frequently Asked Questions
What is hybrid always-on cloud DDoS protection?
Hybrid always-on cloud DDoS protection combines on-premises security appliances with cloud-based scrubbing centers to detect and mitigate attacks in real-time. The Cisco 8G service continuously monitors traffic, automatically identifies threats, and diverts malicious traffic to cloud mitigation centers while allowing legitimate traffic to reach your network.
How much DDoS attack mitigation does this service provide?
The Cisco 8G Hybrid Always-On Cloud DDoS Protection Service provides 8 Gbps of mitigation capacity, protecting against large-scale volumetric attacks while maintaining network performance for legitimate users.
Is cloud DDoS protection always active?
Yes, this always-on cloud DDoS protection service continuously monitors your network traffic 24/7. Threat detection is automatic, and mitigation begins immediately upon attack identification without manual intervention required.
What types of DDoS attacks does this protect against?
The service defends against volumetric attacks (UDP floods, DNS amplification), protocol attacks (SYN floods, fragmented packets), and application-layer attacks (HTTP floods, Slowloris). Multi-layer protection ensures comprehensive coverage across all attack vectors.
