Beyond Firewalls: Proactive DDoS Defense for a Stronger Cybersecurity Posture
- Understand the complexities of modern DDoS attacks and how DDoS protection strengthens web application security
- Learn how to implement a multi-layered DDoS defense approach across diverse environments.
- What are L3, L4, and L7 DDoS attacks? What kind of strategy do you need to protect your organization against all of them?
- Discover solutions for protecting web applications and corporate services in diverse environments.
- Explore the importance of DDoS testing across all layers.
Modern corporate networks face increasing complexity and infrastructure diversity. This diversity creates unique vulnerabilities that can be mitigated through the implementation of DDoS protection and load testing strategies.
Many organizations lack regular DDoS testing and miss the opportunity to strengthen their overall cybersecurity posture. DDoS testing and protection are essential for defending against various types of cyberattacks, including L3 (network layer), L4 (transport layer), and L7 (application layer). Each of these attack types targets a different aspect of an organization's infrastructure. L3 and L4 attacks aim to overwhelm network resources and disrupt connectivity, while L7 attacks exploit application weaknesses to degrade service availability. Regular DDoS testing helps identify vulnerabilities, improve incident response, and ensure that security measures effectively mitigate threats before they cause real damage. In order to protect web applications and services in the cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments, it is necessary to employ modern WAF technologies and DDoS protection tools in combination with a clear strategy.
Osman Celik, a research analyst at KuppingerCole, will present the findings from his recent report, where he analyzed WAF solutions with integrated DDoS protection capabilities. In this session, he will discuss the role of DDoS protection in a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy. He will also share his insights on how organizations can benefit from proactive DDoS testing. Attendees will gain practical knowledge of leveraging DDoS protection to stay ahead of cyber threats.
Andrey Leskin, Chief Technology Officer at Qrator Labs will discuss holistic solutions for web application protection, including L7 DDoS protection, managed Web Application Firewalls (WAF), and bot management. He will also cover connectivity options for L3-L4 DDoS protection and strategies for hybrid infrastructure.
Andy Shoemaker, Chief Executive Officer at NimbusDDOS will address the critical need for ongoing DDoS and WAF resiliency. He will explain how regular testing, configuration validation, and personnel training are vital for maintaining robust defenses against evolving threats.
