Benefits

Self‑serve DDoS protection

Quote, order and configure network‑based, unlimited mitigation for volumetric attacks with clean traffic return via GRE tunnel or integrated into Lumen internet using Internet Direct.¹ Get a predictable monthly service rate, regardless of attack size, length or frequency.

 

Cybersecurity for the agile environment

As new applications are spun up in new environments, you control the additions of sites, tunnels and protected IP spaces and applications.

 

Defense that fits your needs

Whether you’re a Lumen internet customer or you bring your own network, DDoS Hyper can protect your infrastructure. Choose from monitoring and mitigation options that work best for you, such as Always‑On or On‑Demand.
