  • Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks have become more frequent, sophisticated, and potent over last two years with some CSPs registering over 100 attacks daily.
  • Nokia introducing advanced DDoS countermeasures, setting new standards for DDoS security with unmatched detection accuracy and speed and unparalleled mitigation agility and precision.
  • Countermeasures allow Nokia to meet growing demands of communications service providers (CSPs) and large digital enterprises to fight the latest generations of DDoS attacks.

Espoo, Finland – Nokia today revealed an expanded set of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) mitigation capabilities of its Defender Mitigation System (7750 DMS-1) through advanced DDoS countermeasures. These countermeasures allow the DMS to meet the growing demands of communications service providers (CSPs) and large digital enterprises to fight the latest generations of DDoS attacks with improved efficiency and cost efficiency.

Over the last two years, DDoS attacks have become more frequent, sophisticated, and potent with many CSPs and enterprises registering over 100 attacks daily. In 2023, more than 60% of all DDoS attacks were botnet-based, posing great challenges for legacy DDoS solutions and systems to detect and mitigate them. In 2024, DDoS threats come in a variety of new disguises, including free web browsing proxies that can be used to orchestrate botnet DDoS attacks without the knowledge of end-users. The ever-changing DDoS threat landscape is driving the need to neutralize new generations of DDoS attacks with improved speed, efficiency, and precision.
