Cyber threat neutralization through AI-enhanced Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) defense by NETSCOUT
NETSCOUT Systems, a leading provider of observability, AIOps, cybersecurity, and DDoS attack protection solutions, has announced AI-powered enhancements to its Arbor Edge Defense and Arbor Enterprise Manager Adaptive DDoS solution.
The updates aim to automate operations, enhance defense, and improve reporting against DDoS attacks. The enhancements include improved data segmentation, on-demand, automated reports, automated IP protocol flooding detection and mitigation, and an enhanced DDoS dashboard.
In the realm of DDoS protection, NETSCOUT's strategy has been refined to provide more precise scoped user access, enabling better control and management. This improved data segmentation ensures that only authorised personnel have access to sensitive information, enhancing security and privacy.
On-demand, automated reports have been introduced to facilitate easier information flow across security teams. These reports provide up-to-date insights, enabling teams to make informed decisions and respond swiftly to potential threats.
The AI/ML algorithms running in the ATLAS cloud infrastructure provide actionable intelligence to NETSCOUT solutions. The ATLAS Intelligence Feed, representing approximately 50 percent of global Internet activity at any given time, fuels all Arbor DDoS protection products with intelligence on devices involved in DDoS attacks or specific DDoS attack infrastructures and botnets.
According to IDC research, 41 percent of organisations stated that online attacks, including DDoS incidents, cost over $100,000 in damage, with 5 percent stating more than $1 million. These statistics underscore the importance of robust DDoS protection solutions.
The Arbor Edge Defense and Arbor Enterprise Manager solution utilises the ATLAS Intelligence Feed for real-time monitoring of over 700 Tbps of Internet traffic. This monitoring is derived from over 500 ISPs and 2,000 enterprise sites from over 100 countries, providing a comprehensive view of global DDoS activity.
While the person responsible as Area Vice President for DDoS and Threat Intelligence at NETSCOUT Systems was not explicitly named in the provided search results, it is clear that these enhancements represent a significant step forward in NETSCOUT's commitment to providing cutting-edge DDoS protection solutions.
It's worth noting that up to 80 percent of all DDoS attacks can be mitigated without further analysis due to the ATLAS Intelligence Feed. This underscores the effectiveness of NETSCOUT's approach and its potential to significantly reduce the impact of DDoS attacks on businesses worldwide.
