DDoS Dashboard

The DDoS Dashboard offers centralized, real-time visibility into Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) activity targeting your applications and APIs. It enables security teams to quickly assess the scope, behavior, and progression of ongoing and past attacks.

DDoS Protection is available for CloudGuard WAF SaaS. It is not available with other local (Gateway, Agent) editions of the product.

Following is a description of the Dashboard sections:
