With scalable performance and real-time attack signatures, it ensures minimal impact on legitimate traffic. Download the datasheet for more details.

DDOS PROTECTOR X DATASHEET Adaptive Protection from the Most Advanced DDoS Threats Distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks are increasing in frequency and ferocity. Powerful IoT-botnets for hire over the dark web make launching large-scale attacks accessible, effortless, and cheap. Professional hackers are continuously seeking new ways to disrupt the flow of network traffic and undermine the user experience, resulting in loss of revenue, tarnishing of the brand and increased customer churn rates.
DDoS Protector, Check Point’s real-time perimeter attack mitigation device, secures organizations against emerging network multi-vector attacks, powerful DDoS campaigns, IoT botnets, application vulnerability exploitation, malware, and other types of cyberattacks.
Key Features Automated Zero-Day Attack Defense Behavioral-based detection and mitigation to defend against unknown zero-day attacks without impacting legitimate user experience
Keyless SSL/TLS Flood Mitigation High-capacity keyless protection from SSL/TLS-based DDoS attacks without adding latency to customer communications and while preserving user privacy
Advanced Attack Protection Detection and mitigation of today’s most advanced attacks, including Burst attacks, Domain Name System (DNS) amplification attacks, IoT botnet floods, Layer 3–7 and other crippling DDoS attacks
Patent Protected Real-Time Attack Signature Automated signature creation and advanced challenge escalations to achieve the highest mitigation accuracy that can automatically mitigate unknown attacks and minimize the impact on legitimate traffic
