How does Neustar DDoS Attack Protection provide Cloud-Based DDoS Protection?

Neustar DDoS Attack Protection is capable of stopping the most massive cyber-attacks and keeping your infrastructure protected. The software provides cloud-based DDoS protection through DNS Redirection.

DNS Redirection: If a DDoS attack hits your website, the best option is to redirect your traffic via the UltraDDoS Protect Cloud. You can do it through a quick DNS change. It doesn’t require any special setups and is best for protecting a fewer number of websites and hosts. Following are the ways how DNS Redirection works:

1. Users can switch DNS Records of any threatened host(s) to the IP address provided by Neustar DDoS Attack Protection.
2. The traffic flows through UltraDDoS Protected Cloud, where the bad traffic gets filtered by the Neustar Security Operations Center DDoS mitigation professionals. The good traffic flows to the infrastructure of the users.
3. Once the attack gets warded off, users need to switch their DNS records back to their original IPs.

DNS Redirection is a quick and effective way to stave off DDoS attacks along with customized mitigation. However, you can choose BGP Redirection as well for cloud-based DDoS Protection.

How does Neustar DDoS Attack Protection provide On-Premises DDoS Protection?

The on-premise solution offered by Neustar DDoS Attack Protection features Arbor Networks equipment for monitoring, local mitigation and management. The Neustar Security Operations Center monitors the threat and staves off attacks by flexibly shifting defenses while the enemy probes your network. Some of the characteristics of On-Premises DDoS Protection are:

1. Local Mitigation: Neustar DDoS Attack Protection uses the Pravail Protection Availability System from Arbor Networks. Pravail has a capacity of 500 Mbps to 10 Gbps inspected throughput. It is specifically designed to stop layer 4-7 attacks at short notice. 
2. Cloud Signalling Coalition: The cloud signalling coalition provides an infrastructure to coordinate DDoS mitigation from data centers to the protection cloud of Neustar. This makes Neustar a certified provider of cloud failover integration with on-premise Arbor Networks hardware.
3. Cloud Failover: The software monitors your appliance along with the available NetFlow Data. It sends in alerts when the appliance reaches its mitigation threshold. It even manages failover to the UltraDDoS Protect Cloud. This is done by BGP or DNS routing. As the attacks unfold, users get access to real-time information through the UltraDDoS Protect Portal and after the attack is warded off, the users get a detailed report of the entire incident and the actions undertaken.
