Frequently Asked Questions
What is a DDoS attack?
A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is a malicious attempt to disrupt the normal traffic of a targeted server, service, or network by overwhelming the target or its surrounding infrastructure with a flood of internet traffic. This can make your website or online service unavailable to legitimate users.
How does the Always-On Cloud DDoS Service work?
This service continuously monitors your network traffic for suspicious patterns indicative of a DDoS attack. When an attack is detected, it automatically reroutes and filters the malicious traffic through Cisco's scrubbing centers, allowing legitimate traffic to pass through to your network.
Is this service suitable for small businesses?
Yes, this service is designed for businesses of all sizes, including SMBs and mid-market companies, that rely on their online presence. It provides enterprise-grade protection without the complexity or cost of managing on-premises solutions.
