Common Types of DDoS Attacks

DNS Flood

By disrupting DNS resolution, a DNS flood attack will make a website, API, or web application non-performant or completely unavailable.

UDP Amplification (Layer 3 & 4)

An attacker leverages the functionality of open DNS or NTP resolvers to overwhelm a target server or network with amplified request traffic, where the payload size is greater than the size of an originating request.

HTTP Flood (Layer 7)

HTTP flood attacks generate high volumes of HTTP, GET, or POST requests from multiple sources, targeting the application layer, causing service degradation or unavailability.

Layered Security Defense

KVM.NET’s layered security approach combines multiple security capabilities into one service. It prevents disruptions caused by bad traffic, while allowing good traffic through, keeping websites, applications and APIs highly available and performant.

Features

KVM.NET's Performance and Security Services work in conjunction to reduce latency of web sites, mobile applications, and APIs end-to-end, while protecting against DDoS attack, abusive bots, and data breach.

Content Delivery Network (CDN)

With 10 data centers, KVM.NET’s Anycast CDN caches static content at the edge, reducing latency by delivering assets as close as geographically possible to visitors.

Website Optimizations

Includes a suite of web optimizations to improve the performance of Internet assets. Optimizations include the latest web standards, such as HTTP/2 and TLS 1.3, as well as proprietary enhancements for images and mobile device visitors.

Anycast Network

With 10 data centers and 4.5 Tbsp of capacity, Our Anycast network absorbs distributed attack traffic by dispersing it geographically, while keeping Internet properties available and performant.

Web Application Firewall (WAF)

Enterprise-grade web application firewall (WAF) detects and block common application layer vulnerabilities at the network edge, utilising the OWASP Top 10, application-specific and custom rulesets.

SSL / TLS

Transport Security Layer (TLS) encryption enables HTTPS connections between visitors and origin server(s), preventing man-in-the-middle attacks, packet sniffing, the display of web browser trust warnings, and more.

Access

ecure, authenticate, and monitor user access to any domain, application, or path on CDN.
