Discover four effective methods to defend against DDoS attacks, including professional protection services, network infrastructure enhancement, traffic cleaning techniques, and architecture optimization. Integrate global nodes, load balancing, high-performance hardware, and AI to ensure uninterrupted service🔒
This guide is based on the years of practical experience of CDN5 cybersecurity engineer Sam Altman in the field of cybersecurity, combined with the latest industry research, systematically explaining the principles of DDoS attacks, defense strategies, and four complete solutions verified by actual combat. Through a combination of theoretical explanations, technical analysis, and case studies, it provides comprehensive guidance for cybersecurity professionals from basic protection to advanced countermeasures.
I. The Essence of DDoS Attacks
The essence of DDoS attacks is to use botnets to send massive requests or traffic to target systems, exhausting their computing resources, bandwidth, or session connection limits, resulting in normal users being unable to access services. The core objectives of attackers include:
(II) Attack Type Matrix Analysis
Attack Type | Typical Methods | Defense Challenges |
---|---|---|
Traffic-based attacks | UDP Flood, ICMP Flood, DNS reflection amplification | Difficult to distinguish from normal traffic peaks |
Protocol-based attacks | SYN Flood, TCP state exhaustion | Requires deep protocol analysis |
Application layer attacks | HTTP Flood, CC attacks | Difficult to identify forged legitimate requests |
Mixed attacks | Multi-vector combined attacks | Defense systems need comprehensive coordination |
Low-frequency pulse attacks | Intermittently launching attacks | Difficult to trigger traditional threshold alarms |

III. Solution 1: Cloud-Edge Collaborative Defense System
(I) Implementation Steps
(II) Response to Typical Scenarios
Attack Type | Defense Mechanism | Response Process |
---|---|---|
UDP Flood | Cloud traffic cleaning + boundary firewall discarding | 1. Cloud identifies abnormal traffic characteristics 2. Triggers blackhole routing 3. Boundary firewall discards subsequent traffic |
HTTP CC Attack | WAF rule engine + CAPTCHA challenge | 1. WAF identifies abnormal request patterns 2. Triggers CAPTCHA verification 3. Limits high-frequency IP access |
DNS Reflection Amplification | Anycast DNS + traffic filtering | 1. Anycast disperses query traffic 2. Filters non-recursive queries 3. Discards illegal response packets |
