Anti-DDoS Service
HGC provides 3-tiered anti-DDoS protection that identifies the sources of attack, safeguards servers and infrastructure, and facilitates service continuity.
| Features | Details |
|---|---|
| Tier 1 – Network Layer Protection | This is a network-based anti-DDoS solution that detects and stops all attack traffic before entering a customer's network. This solution rides on HGC's resilient operation infrastructure to provide very high service availability. It obtains and analyses the traffic flow information from the routers at the edge of our broadband network to provide insights into both normal and abnormal network traffic conditions. If attack is detected, the system will send an alert to customers, and HGC's Security Operation Centre (SOC) will then activate traffic redirection to the scrubbing centre for traffic data mitigation. The clean traffic will be re-routed to customers. Key features and benefits: - No additional equipment is required to be installed in customers' sites - 24/7 SOC monitoring - Real-time attack detection - Service-level guarantee for attack notification and mitigation - User portal for real-time viewing of DDoS attack reports, monthly reports and incident reports |
| Tier 2 – Application Layer Protection | This is an on-premise anti-DDoS solution that protects customers from application attacks that threaten service and application availability. It automatically detects and discards the attack traffic before flowing into a customers' server. Little to no user interaction is required, reducing the burden on the security team. Key features and benefits: - Immediate protection from threats with more control - Easy to install, configure and use - Full control of mitigation - Automated threat updates |
| Tier 3 – Cloud-based Layer Protection | This is a cloud-based anti-DDoS solution that includes a global scrubbing centre with the capacity to mitigate a large number of attacks. |
HGC's Security Operations Centre is applied for Tier 1 and Tier 2 solutions that are run by security professionals monitoring customers' networks around the clock, every day of the year.
