DDoS Mitigation

OARnet offers two levels of DDoS mitigation protection as part of our internet service offering. First, on-premise custom filters are developed by OARnet engineers to protect again common DDoS attack vectors, serving as a first line of defense. Second, cloud-based DDoS mitigation utilizes a carrier service to block large-scale attacks and includes a scrubbing service to remove bad traffic and forward clean traffic to the client. OARnet’s unique DDoS mitigation service combines both on-premise and cloud-based to protect the network and minimize service disruptions.
