DDoS protection

What it is

DDoS attacks attempt to exhaust bandwidth, connection state or application resources by generating malicious traffic from many sources.

Why it matters

Protection is important for organizations whose websites, APIs, VPN gateways or public services must remain reachable during an attack.

What shapes the design

• Protected addresses and services
• Carrier and filtering capabilities
• Protection activation model
• Escalation and validation process

QMTS delivery scope

We assess exposed services and bandwidth, define the protection model with carriers or security providers, establish routing/activation procedures and validate operational escalation.

Customer deliverables

A documented DDoS mitigation model with protected prefixes/services, activation procedures and provider escalation paths.

Typical use cases

Internet-facing applications, public services, e-commerce, financial services, VPN gateways and data-center internet edges.

Delivery lifecycle

• 01 Requirements discovery and current-state assessment.
• 02 Architecture, dependencies and implementation planning.
• 03 Technical specification, configuration baseline and delivery preparation.
• 04 Implementation, integration, testing and controlled commissioning.
• 05 As-built documentation, operational handover and managed support where required.

Before we start

To scope a project, describe the goal, users and sites, current systems, timing constraints and desired outcome. Solution scope and service terms are defined after assessment.
