Over the past two years, the size of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks doubled, and the number and combination of attack vectors increased significantly. In 2020, an 809 million packets per second (Mpps) attack hit an organization, making the event the largest packet per second attack ever recorded. While some organizations may believe they’re low-risk targets for a DDoS attack, businesscritical services and applications in every industry are rich targets, and leave every business exposed to downtime and diminished performance if infrastructure isn’t protected. DDoS protection must be a key tenet of your overall security strategy, so being aware of the myths can be critical to your DDoS defensive posture.
