Anti-DDOS

Protect your network from malicious activity.

DDoS is a type of attack on a network that is designed to bringing the network/service down by flooding it with the useless traffic.Exploited machines can include computers and other networked resources such as IoT devices.

From a high level, a DDoS attack is like an unexpected traffic jam clogging up the highway, preventing regular traffic from arriving at its destination.

Anti DDOS Benefits:​

  • Create a shield for human authentication​

It create a layer of human authentication to detect their activity and protect them.

  • Mass-Scale IP Blocking​

Our DDoS mitigation solution can block well over one million IP addresses simultaneously, whether sourced from automated threat intelligence feeds or configured manually. The appliance uses optimized in-memory filtering and hardware-accelerated lookups to enforce these blocks without adding latency or degrading network throughput. This ensures real-time threat mitigation at scale while maintaining peak network performance for legitimate traffic.

  • Brute-Force Login Protection​

It protect the customers from brute login attempts and account takeover.

  • Amplification & Reflection Flood Protection​

It safeguards against amplification and reflection attacks by blocking spoofed IP packets, monitoring abnormal traffic behaviour. This ensures quick mitigation and uninterrupted availability of critical online services even during large-scale attacks.

  • Transparent and Easy Deployment​

Haltdos Anti-DDOS provides protection by being an inline solution that seamlessly integrates into your existing infrastructure with a simple DNS change. Haltdos Solution can be deployed in layer 2 transparent mode for inline traffic. This deployment will not perform any changes in ARP/MAC address for uplink or downlink devices. Post inspection, it will forward the frame in the exact same format to next device without changing MAC/IP address details.

  • Unlimited Session Handling​

Our DDoS mitigation platform is purpose-built to handle massive surges in concurrent sessions without any artificial limits. Leveraging high-performance hardware acceleration, distributed processing, and optimized session management, it can sustain multi-million concurrent connections and process millions of new connections per second — even under extreme DDoS attack conditions. This ensures uninterrupted availability for legitimate users, zero performance bottlenecks, and consistent protection regardless of attack size or complexity.

  • Cost Effective​

Haltdos Anti-DDoS Solution comes with built-in Web application firewall service at no additional cost and is inclusive of comprehensive network to application layer protection.

  • Multi-Layered Defense​

Haltdos Anti-DDoS Solution is based on machine learning and artificial intelligence and is competent enough to provide multi-layered protection in real time.

  • Multi Protocol Support​

The DDoS solution supports 802.1Q VLAN tagging, L2TP, GRE, VPN, and similar encapsulated traffic without impacting performance. This is deployed without changin the MAC/IP details of inline traffic.

  • Hardware Bypass Adapter​

The Haltdos Anti-DDoS solution can be deployed with a specialized hardware bypass adapter to maintain network connectivity and service availability in the event of an appliance failure. The bypass adapter automatically allows traffic to pass directly between the network interfaces if the Haltdos Anti-DDoS device loses power, crashes, freezes, or becomes unavailable. This ensures that a failure of the inline Anti-DDoS appliance does not become a point of network disruption, allowing normal traffic to continue flowing while the device is being restored or serviced.

Key benefit: The hardware bypass mechanism provides automatic fail-open connectivity, helping maintain network availability and minimizing service interruption during hardware or system failures.

  • TLS Fingerprinting​

HALTDOS uses TLS fingerprinting, including JA3 and JA4, as an additional security signal in its DDoS protection and WAF solutions to identify and correlate clients based on characteristics of their TLS handshake, such as TLS version, cipher suites, extensions, supported groups, and protocol behavior. By analyzing JA3/JA4 fingerprints alongside IP reputation, request rates, HTTP behavior, and other traffic signals, HALTDOS can detect abnormal or automated traffic, correlate attack patterns even when source IPs change, and take appropriate actions such as allowing, rate-limiting, challenging, or blocking suspicious requests.

  • Support for Traffic Redirection to Scrubbing / RTBH​

The Haltdos Anti-DDoS Solution supports traffic redirection for scrubbing and mitigation through BGP FlowSpec, which is available only in the out-of-path deployment model. The solution receives traffic telemetry and visibility data from inline network devices via NetFlow v5, NetFlow v9, sFlow, IPFIX, or SPAN traffic. By analyzing the received traffic summaries or mirrored traffic, the platform can detect DDoS attacks in real time and automatically trigger mitigation actions. Once an attack is identified, mitigation can be initiated through cloud signaling for traffic diversion to a scrubbing center or through BGP FlowSpec for dynamic traffic filtering and enforcement, enabling rapid attack response while minimizing impact on legitimate traffic.

  • Non Blocking Architecture​

Haltdo Anti-DDOS is designed around a non-blocking, lockless architecture to achieve maximum packet processing throughput and ultra-low latency. Rather than relying on traditional operating system abstractions that cause blocking, Anti-DDoS utilizes a poll-mode driver (PMD) model and specialized lockless data structures to keep CPU cores running at 100% efficiency without waiting for resources.
