Get the power of DDoS mitigation at scale

We use Black Lotus Labs® global threat intelligence as countermeasures to block DDoS bots on the network as traffic hits a scrubbing center. It’s called Rapid Threat Defense—and with multi-tiered scrubbing architecture backed by 170 Tbps of network-based mitigation capacity enacted at 500+ global scrubbing locations, integrated into one of the largest internet backbones, we own DDoS Mitigation at scale.
