Protecting Stateful Devices on Your Network Edge from DDoS Attacks
Firewalls, VPN concentrators, IDS/IPS, load balancers, etc., all have one thing in common. They are stateful devices. That makes them very susceptible to DDoS attacks – more specifically, state exhaustion attacks. To protect these devices from DDoS attacks, you need dedicated, stateless DDoS attack protection technology deployed in front of your stateful infrastructure.
