DDoS Mitigation
Stop bad actors at the gates with DDoS-protected network connectivity built directly into Summit’s network.
Get DDoS protection
All it takes to launch a DDoS attack is someone willing to pay for it.
When taking your business offline takes nothing more than a credit card, you need a network connectivity partner who can see it coming — and stop it before it does.
At Summit, we mitigate DDoS attacks for every client connected to our network. For high-risk industries and/or high-cost downtimes, we can optionally provide a more involved setup. Whichever level of DDoS protection you need, it’s always wise to start your preparations early. No one wants to build a plane midair.
DDoS mitigation provides protection against the inevitable.
With Summit, you won’t see your server blink out like just another dot on the map, taking your business down with it.
Features
Support for a Broad Range of Attacks
- Volumetric attacks (generate massive volumes of traffic to completely saturate bandwidth and create a traffic jam that prevents legitimate traffic from visiting the site)
- Protocol attacks (eat up the processing capacity of network infrastructure resources by targeting Layer 3 and Layer 4 protocol communications with malicious connection requests)
- Application attacks (exploit weaknesses in the application layer—Layer 7—by opening connections and initiating process and transaction requests that use up available memory)
Continuous Rule & Protection Strategy Updates
- We continuously update rules and strategies for your environment
- Your environment always leverages the latest protection intelligence
Immediate Scrubbing
- The service monitors, detects, and automatically scrubs malicious traffic without taking your applications and data offline
- Your environment stayss online without manual intervention
Minimal Network Latency
- Anytime DDoS protection is triggered, your traffic will be redirected to our scrubbing centers which may slightly increase latency
- However, our DDoS Protection Service is architected with high-speed traffic scrubbers around the world, so you will be connected to the one with the lowest latency to minimize any impact during attacks
