NANOG's video: Gatekeeper: First Open Source DDoS Protection System

Cody Doucette Distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks are at the tipping point of becoming everybody's top concern: (1) the peak capacity of DDoS attacks has been growing exponentially for years, (2) this trend is not slowing down, and (3) most attacks are not yet very sophisticated. While current DDoS protection systems have been able to match the peak capacity of attacks, they are brittle in the face of the increasing sophistication of attacks. In this talk, we introduce Gatekeeper, a DDoS protection system that scales to any peak capacity, delivers unparalleled multi-vector protection and mitigates attacks in seconds.
