I worked at GTE/BBN in 1999 and we were selling all the same crap back then. With that said and having worked at EMC for a while you can have a "Cloud" on premises just means you have the hardware in one of your company locations. You can have private, shared, public or a combo. It is the same evolution as IT security circa 1970-80s (Rainbow Book Series days), then Information Security circa 1990s, then Information Assurance circa late 90s early 2000s and now Cyber Security. With each name change consultants and companies can charge more for the same ultimate goal with each name change. OK I will now get off my soapbox. -----Original Message----- From: listbounce () securityfocus com [mailto:listbounce () securityfocus com] On Behalf Of Hartley, Christopher J.

By “Cloud,” it seem like we mean “by provider” (makes sense). On-premise is the best way to detect an attack imo, since the victim network knows what’s good and what’s not (or should….). So I think the best solution involves some kind of remote blackhole or ideally, perhaps flowspec. I don’t think it’s a problem that requires spending significant money.

Disclaimer: I work for a company which offers a DDoS Protection Service. The advantage of a service "in the cloud" is that if an attack exceeds your circuit bandwidth the provider will be able to drop the malicious traffic. That cannot be done at your premise. Both Arbor and Radware offer strong appliances that can clean up smaller attacks at your premise and can send a signal to the provider if they support that service. You can block traffic using IPS's but keep in mind they are not designed for a volumetric attack and may be overwhelmed.

If that is right, you do not need to bother with DDoS protection, which is against server side.

Noted the points raised by Jacint and Kelly Keeton. I appreciate that. May I be kind to seek an opinion/ arguments suggesting if the In-house appliances are more "intelligent" thwarting the application level DOS/ DDoS attacks as compared to ISP provided DOS protection wherein it may even fail to detect them. or if there are other benefits owning an In-house product? As far as Cons are concerned, I feel that the appliance may add some latency which may create issues wherein a latency of milliseconds count. Although we're small, We're an organization playing with ($,¥,€,£) exchanges and heavily regulated by the Government.
