Training a million models per day to save customers of all sizes from DDoS attacks

Our always-on DDoS protection runs inside every server across our global network. It constantly analyzes incoming traffic, looking for signals associated with previously identified DDoS attacks. We dynamically create fingerprints to flag malicious traffic, which is dropped when detected in high enough volume — so it never reaches its destination — keeping customer websites online. In many cases, flagging bad traffic can be straightforward.
