Frequently Asked Questions
What is behavioral DDoS protection?
Behavioral DDoS protection analyzes network traffic patterns to identify anomalies that indicate an attack, even if the attack signature is unknown. This adaptive approach is more effective against novel and zero-day threats than signature-based methods alone.
What kind of DDoS attacks does this license protect against?
This license enables protection against a wide spectrum of DDoS attacks, including volumetric attacks that consume bandwidth, protocol attacks that exploit network vulnerabilities, and application-layer attacks that target specific services.
Is this license tied to specific hardware?
Yes, this license is for the Cisco DefensePro VA 10000 platform. The MPN suggests it is for the VA 10000 series appliance.
