Multi-layer DoS/DDoS protection is a core technology of the Reblaze web security platform. Reblaze (now part of Link11) intercepts and mitigates threats far away from your data center, ensuring that your site continues to operate at high performance levels. Your users won’t even notice that an attack is occurring.

Reblaze protects your web assets from DoS/DDoS across layers 3, 4, and 7 (network, transport, and application). It is effective at all scales, from massive DDoS botnet assaults to single malformed-packet DoS attempts.

Pharma mall uses the patented Link11 security technology to protect its infrastructure and web applications from damaging DDoS attacks.

Pharma mall itself acts with its own e-commerce platform as a major provider for over 19,000 pharmacies, hundreds of clinics and more than 50 manufacturers. The risk of a business-disrupting attack is therefore enormous and it is essential to reduce the potential risk to an absolute minimum.

With the newly deployed DDoS protection, pharma mall now welcomes only filtered and clean traffic to the website and can focus on the essential business instead.

In Link11’s DDoS Report, the firm’s security experts summarize the new DDoS threats that companies were confronted with. More and broader attack surfaces attracted both high-volume and multi-vector attacks. In addition, DDoS attackers often extorted companies dependent on online services and availability.

A robust web security solution has to address many layers, from threat detection and access control to DDoS protection, API security, and bot detection. The architecture of the solution has a direct impact on its effectiveness and performance.

In this white paper, we discuss the problems inherent in a multi-tenant web security architecture for security, privacy, performance, and cost.

Cloud-native and other service-based architectures have many advantages, and many organizations are adopting them. As a result, new RESTful web services and other API-based services are continually appearing. Unfortunately, as APIs evolve, so do their potential attack surfaces. Developers are often preoccupied with rigorous delivery schedules, so it is easy for newly-created vulnerabilities to go unnoticed. Meanwhile, hackers focus on finding opportunities for abuse that the developers hadn’t anticipated. In this environment, robust API protection is vital.

Modern threat actors use a variety of sophisticated tactics to wage ATO attacks. Reblaze (now part of Link11) protects against them all: it prevents credential theft, credential discovery, session attacks, and the abuse of valid credentials.

Some of the main benefits:
  • Prevents:
    • Account Abuse
    • Session Attacks
    • Credential Discovery
    • Abuse of Valid Credentials
  • Complete Account Security
  • Eliminates Man-in-the-Middle (MITM)

In this white paper, we’ll discuss ways to reduce security-related costs, while at the same time achieving a more robust security posture. Some of the tactics discussed in this white paper apply to any architecture, whether cloud, hybrid, or traditional datacenter. Others apply specifically to cloud architectures. In particular, organizations using the public cloud to host their sites, apps, and services can expect significant financial benefits when using a web security solution running in the same VPC and using the same CDN.

The security specialists at Link11 have summarized the developments in DDoS attacks for the 1st half of 2021 in a report. The extensive figures and analyses from network monitoring provide an up-to-date picture of the threat landscape: characterized by high-volume attacks, heavy abuse of cloud servers, and ongoing DDoS extortions campaigns. Multi-vector attacks, which target various vulnerabilities in the IT infrastructure, also posed a growing threat in the first half of the year.

Arvato Systems harnessed Link11 Cloud Security on Platform Equinix®, eliminating DDoS cyberattacks via a redundant network and security infrastructure.

Arvato Systems serves the IT needs of both internal and external customers. It offers solutions for multiple industries such as retail/e-commerce, media, healthcare and utilities. Given the increase in volume and complexity of distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks, the company needed to scale the mitigation capacity of its data center and security architecture. Harnessing Link11’s cloud-native DDoS protection service on Platform Equinix ensured that only “clean traffic” reached Arvato Systems’Systems’ and its customers’ networks.

Equinix and Link11 helped Arvato Systems significantly expand the scalability and reliability of its DDoS cybersecurity infrastructure for its internal users and external customers while gaining high- performance, low-latency connectivity to multiple service providers. This solution provided Arvato Systems with benefits like eliminated system failures, doubled internet bandwidth capacity, increased system capacity, and greater network and system resiliency.
