💡 DDoS Mitigation Approaches
Distributed denial of service attacks overwhelm infrastructure with traffic volume. Effective mitigation combines always-on traffic scrubbing, anycast network distribution, rate limiting, and the ability to quickly scale absorption capacity during attacks.
💡 Open Redirect Exploitation
Open redirect vulnerabilities allow attackers to redirect users from trusted domains to malicious sites. While often underestimated, these flaws enable convincing phishing, token theft through redirect-based OAuth flows, and SSRF chains.
