Challenges with current DDoS solutions

In the past few years, a rise in DDoS attacks has been observed. As per the recent report by Radware, 43% of organizations experienced burst attacks, but the rest were unaware of whether they were attacked. Attackers are adapting several emerging techniques and complex tactics to compromise the target network.

On February 28, 2018, GitHub, the code hosting website, was hit with the largest-ever DDoS attack, recorded at 1.35 TBps. As DDoS attacks fall under the cyber threat category, that makes it unfeasible to deploy any security prevention mechanism as system vulnerabilities are under the control of organizations but threats cant be controlled. The frontend of the web application remains centralized for all users; hence, it leaves a single point of failure for organizations.
