DDoS Protection Setup
DDoS attacks aren't just for large companies — any publicly accessible service is a target. We deploy multi-layer DDoS protection: network-level mitigation for volumetric attacks, application-level filtering for L7 attacks, and rate limiting for abuse prevention. Plus incident response runbooks so your team knows what to do at 3am.

We implement, you ship. Async, documented, done in days.
Network-Layer Protection
Cloudflare, AWS Shield, or cloud-native DDoS protection absorbs volumetric attacks (SYN floods, UDP amplification, DNS reflection) at the edge before they reach your infrastructure. We configure always-on protection — not the kind you manually enable during an attack. Anycast routing distributes attack traffic across global PoPs. Your origin servers never see the flood.
Application-Layer Protection
L7 attacks (HTTP floods, Slowloris, application-specific abuse) bypass network-level mitigation. WAF rules detect and block malicious request patterns. Rate limiting per IP, per session, and per endpoint throttles abuse without affecting legitimate users. Challenge pages (CAPTCHA, JS challenges) activate during elevated threat levels. Bot detection separates legitimate crawlers from attack bots.
Origin Hardening
Your origin infrastructure gets hardened independently of upstream protection. Origin IPs are not publicly discoverable — traffic only flows through the CDN/proxy. Authenticated origin pulls verify requests come from Cloudflare/CDN. Connection limits and SYN cookies at the OS level protect against direct attacks. Even if an attacker finds your origin IP, the infrastructure handles it gracefully.
Incident Response
We document DDoS response procedures: who gets paged, how to escalate to the DDoS protection provider, how to enable enhanced mitigation, and how to communicate with users during an incident. Automated playbooks activate mitigation modes when traffic patterns match attack signatures. Post-incident analysis identifies attack vectors and tunes rules. You're prepared, not panicking.
