Operating across 16 scrubbing centres worldwide, the platform analyses incoming traffic, blocks malicious requests and forwards legitimate traffic to customers, helping to keep websites, applications and critical services online during attacks.
The increased capacity also enables organisations to withstand multiple simultaneous attacks known as carpet bombing attacks and increasingly common multi-vector campaigns without compromising performance.
Cloud-based protection to curtail chaos
According to Markets and Markets, demand for DDoS protection continues to grow as cloud adoption accelerates and attackers use AI to launch faster and much more complex campaigns.
Mega botnets such as Aisuru and Kimwolf have also pushed attack volumes towards the 30Tbps mark, increasing pressure on enterprises and service providers to strengthen their defences.
NETSCOUT said Arbor Cloud forms part of its hybrid DDoS protection strategy, combining on-premises defence with cloud-based traffic scrubbing through automated cloud signalling.
