About DDoS attacks

The risk of facing DDoS attacks is growing and the number of attempts is on the rise. Each month, POST publishes its statistics on the volumetric DDoS attacks registered by its backbone network in Luxembourg.

What is a DDoS attack ?
A Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack is an attempt to make an online service on internet unavailable by overwhelming it with traffic from multiple sources. These attacks are always more complex and enterprises cannot protect themselves against these attacks. Traditional security systems such as Firewalls, DNS do not stop all DDoS attacks. Only a dedicated service will protect your IT infrastructures and your Internet services, by mitigating your traffic: rejecting illegitimate Internet traffic and filtering legitimate traffic.

What are the consequences? 
In case of a DDoS attack, the impacts are numerous for your company:

  • Business interruption

  • Loss of income

  • Loss of notoriety

Preventing DDoS attacks by blocking illegitimate traffic

The number of so-called Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks in Luxembourg is increasing month after month. Cybercriminals are hijacking connected devices to send illegitimate traffic to organisations and saturate connections. These attacks have the effect of degrading the level of service or paralysing the business. To help Luxembourg businesses protect themselves against these attacks, POST has solutions for blocking illegitimate traffic (in real time if needed) before it reaches the organisation's systems.
