DDoS Mitigation Services

As Prolexic’s cloud-based DDoS mitigation services are available on-demand, client traffic can be routed through Prolexic’s network in the event of an attack. There are two methods of activating the service, both pioneered by Prolexic:

• PLXrouted – The preferred method of activation for enterprise-class businesses, this service provides protection
  for all services, ports and protocols while providing total control over when traffic is filtered.  Attacks are detected
  by monitoring customer premise equipment and the service is activated using Border Gateway Protocol (BGP)
  to onramp traffic to Prolexic’s cloud-based mitigation infrastructure.

• PLXproxy – A Prolexic customer initiates a DNS change to redirect all network traffic through Prolexic where it is cleansed.  Suitable for small to medium businesses and all firms under immediate attack, this is the quickest way to provision Prolexic’s DDoS mitigation protection.  This service provides protection and DDoS mitigation
  for all HTTP and HTTPS (secure) Internet traffic and against all types and sizes of DDoS attacks.
