💡 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.
💡 Insider Threat Indicators
Insider threats — whether malicious or negligent — account for a significant percentage of data breaches. Behavioral analytics detecting unusual access patterns, data downloads, and privilege escalation help identify insider risks before damage occurs.
