Security that never sleeps, protection that never slows

DDoS Protection is a security capability that defends applications and infrastructure from Distributed Denial of Service attacks. It monitors network traffic at layers 3, 4, 6, and 7, using pattern recognition, signature algorithms, and Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) to detect malicious traffic. When an attack is identified, traffic is automatically diverted through global scrubbing centers that filter malicious requests while allowing legitimate traffic to reach your applications.

Yes. Azion DDoS Protection integrates with your existing security stack and operates as part of a unified security platform—combine DDoS Protection with WAF, Bot Manager, Network Shield, and custom Functions for comprehensive protection. Stream security events to your SIEM via Data Stream for centralized visibility across all security tools, reducing operational complexity while strengthening your security posture.

Azion DDoS Protection defends against volumetric attacks (UDP floods, ICMP floods, amplification attacks), protocol attacks (SYN floods, packet floods, ping of death), and application-layer attacks (HTTP floods, slowloris, DNS query floods). The system monitors traffic at layers 3, 4, 6, and 7, with automated mitigation in under 3 seconds across all attack types. Unlimited bandwidth protection ensures availability regardless of attack volume.

Azion DDoS Protection deploys in under 30 minutes with no hardware provisioning required. Simply configure your DNS to point to Azion's network and enable DDoS Protection in the console. Always-on protection is automatically active—no manual intervention needed during attacks. Unlike traditional DDoS mitigation services that require manual activation, Azion provides continuous protection that responds automatically within seconds.

No. Azion DDoS Protection operates on a globally distributed infrastructure that filters malicious traffic before it reaches your origin. Legitimate traffic experiences minimal latency while malicious traffic is blocked at scrubbing centers worldwide. The system mitigates attacks in under 3 seconds without performance degradation for real users. Unlike legacy DDoS solutions that route all traffic through centralized scrubbing centers, Azion's distributed architecture maintains performance even during large-scale attacks.

Azion DDoS Protection is included with the platform at no additional cost for basic mitigation. Start with $300 in free credits to test the service with no credit card required. Pricing scales with your traffic volume with unlimited mitigation bandwidth—no surprise charges during attacks. Our distributed architecture eliminates the need for separate DDoS infrastructure, reducing costs and operational complexity compared to standalone DDoS services.

Yes. While WAF protects against application-layer attacks like SQL injection and XSS, it cannot defend against volumetric and protocol-level DDoS attacks that overwhelm infrastructure. Azion's unified security platform combines DDoS Protection with WAF, Bot Manager, and Network Shield for comprehensive coverage across all attack vectors. Each protection layer addresses different threat types—DDoS Protection handles volumetric attacks while WAF focuses on application-layer exploits.
