The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks continue to become more frequent, more powerful, and more damaging. With the growing online availability of attack tools, the variants of possible attacks are now more numerous than ever.
Cisco Secure DDoS Protection solutions defend organizations against today’s most sophisticated DDoS attacks using advanced behavioral-based and machine learning algorithms to rapidly detect and mitigate both network-layer (Layers 3 and 4) and application-layer (Layer 7) attacks. Cisco Secure DDoS Protection solutions defend against encrypted SSL-based DDoS attacks without adding latency and use automatic, adaptive real-time protection to defend against zero-day attacks. Multiple deployment options, including cloud-based, customer premises, and hybrid deployment, offer solutions for every customer.
